My feeling says that you forgot to RTFM, the part about the
debian/svn-deblayout with default settings. Am I right?

My feeling is that you rushing a litle bit.
BTW, the manual is quite thin on explanations related to fields in the
.svn/deb-layout and actions. Is it possible to have a
debian/svn-buildpackage.actions.config ?

Back to the issue at hand, the main desire is to be able to do something like:

svn co <some package URI, be it trunk or an old/new tagged release> pack
cd pack
svn-buildpackage

That happening on a fresh machine while in SVN there is only the
debian/ directory and the orig tarballs are _NOT_ in SVN.

If that is possible, maybe a couple of examples in the HOWTO would be
good to have, it is not obvious.

Note: I consider a debian/svn-deblayout a file in the class of SCM
debris, debris which should not be present in the source package, as
the policy states. That's why I think this info should be present in
svn properties. After the file release nobody will need that file if
the package is apt-get sourced.
