I've recently found myself with a need to upgrade my SVN client to 1.7, so I started poking around some.
- The versions in testing/sid are 1.6.*, so I started looking at getting the src package and rolling my own .deb for now. - Every release since 2006 has "dfsg" on it. It's been too long since I used Debian and I don't remember what is indicated by "dfsg" in a package name, but I vaguely recall it being unusual. - The QA page has a note: "A new upstream version is available: 1.6.17, you should consider packaging it." Except that the "1.6.17" link is semi- outdated; trying to go to the given parent page of subversion.tigris.org/downloads doesn't give a 403 redirect, but rather a blurb pointing to subversion.apache.org/download -- and on that page, 1.7.1 is listed as the most recent version, like you'd expect. None of that especially worries me, but it does make me wonder: has anyone tried building 1.7.* on a sid system? Is there anything in the build rules from 1.6.* that caused you trouble? I'd love to avoid solving the same issues from scratch if I can. And a meta-question: where might I look for discussions about future SVN package plans? Searching debian-user archives didn't find anything. I'm hoping the maintainer is just on holiday for a bit. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
