Version: 1.1.1-1
Severity: wishlist
If there is little entropy available then svnserve can hang for up to
several minutes waiting on /dev/random. This is similiar to the problem
listed here:
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.1/apb.html#svn-ap-b-sect-1.2.14
But I guess it affects Linux too (I'm running 2.6.9 on a P3).
See also http://svn.haxx.se/users/archive-2004-03/0452.shtml
This drove me nuts - I thought something was wrong with Subversion. I
can think of several possible fixes:
1. Compile APR against /dev/urandom instead of /dev/random (as suggested
in the manual). Admittedly this reduces the randomness, but I think
anyone who needs real security will run svn+ssh or Apache (I'm running
straight svn).
2. Make /dev/random vs. /dev/urandom a debconf option.
3. At least mention the problem in README.debian
Perhaps also make rng-tools a suggested package. This solved the problem
for me, but I think it would need a comment as to *why* rng-tools is
suggested. Also, rng-tools won't work on all machines - it needs the
hw_random kernel module or equivalent.

Changes:
subversion (1.2.3dfsg1-3) unstable; urgency=low
.
[ Peter Samuelson ]
* rules: Remove the unwritten requirement that /usr/bin/python be
specifically version 2.3:
- derive python version from debian/control, not from dpkg -l
- pass PYTHON=python2.3 explicitly into configure
* rules: clean rule: Seek and destroy _all_ *.pyc files. There were
a few we didn't catch before, buried in the testsuite.
* Remove various unneeded files from language bindings (Closes: #310777)
- libsvn-core-perl.install: don't install /usr/lib/*.{a,la,so}
- python2.3-subversion.install: likewise
- libsvn-javahl.install: don't install /usr/lib/jni/*.{a,la}
- rules: delete *.{a,la} from python2.3/site-packages/libsvn
* control: build-depends on libapr0-dev (>= 2.0.55-3).
Earlier versions of libapr0 will try to make us link to libdb4.2.
* subversion.NEWS, README.db4.3: document db4.2 -> db4.3 upgrade.
* patches/no_extra_libs.patch: new patch to prevent linking to several
unneeded libraries. (Closes: #336373, which was caused by linking to
libssl0.9.8.)
- debian/control: Remove several depends and build-depends we are no
longer using because of this
* patches/commit-email-warning.patch: new patch to eliminate a harmless
warning in a hook script. (Closes: #336781)
* patches/perl-test-clean.patch: new patch to avoid leaving several
/tmp/svn-perl-test-xxxxxx dirs.
* patches/swig-1.3.27-hack.patch: new patch to avoid FTBFS from bad
interaction of swig 1.3.27 and <apr.h>. A *really* ugly hack.
.
[ Adam Conrad ]
* Switch to using DB4.3 instead of DB4.2, as libapr0 has
(Closes: #335455, #335438)
- Bump build-dep and libsvn0-dev dep from libdb4.2-dev to libdb4.3-dev
- Bump subversion and libapache2-svn deps from db4.2-util to db4.3-util
.
[ Troy Heber ]
* Added note about the requirement for nfs-common when your repository lives
on a NFS volume. (closes: #316097)
* Changing the default behavior to not use apr_generate_random_bytes(),
Debian use the system APR which is configured to use /dev/random. In cases
where the entropy pool is drained svn commands can block waiting. Removing
the call to apr_generate_random_bytes and using the fallback apr_time_now
instead. (closes: #285708, #298822)
