The perl bindings are really confusing. Start from scratch: configure make make swig-pl make check-swig-pl # PASS make clean-swig-pl make swig-pl make check-swig-pl # FAIL It was that FAIL after the rebuild that was confusing me. I get the same thing in 1.6 so this is not a regression. So r1037358 is not a problem, it's simply that when I reverted it I also manually removed enough of the perl build that my environment got back to the state in which the tests would PASS the first time. >> It's not clear that that is enough, the installed >> shared objects still refer to the build directory: >> >> $ objdump -x /usr/local/lib/perl/5.10.1/auto/SVN/_Repos/_Repos.so | grep >> RPATH >> RPATH >> /home/pm/sw/subversion/obj-1.7/subversion/libsvn_client/.libs:/home/pm/sw/subversion/obj-1.7/subversion/libsvn_delta/.libs:/home/pm/sw/subversion/obj-1.7/subversion/libsvn_fs/.libs:/home/pm/sw/subversion/obj-1.7/subversion/libsvn_ra/.libs:/home/pm/sw/subversion/obj-1.7/subversion/libsvn_repos/.libs:/home/pm/sw/subversion/obj-1.7/subversion/libsvn_wc/.libs:/home/pm/sw/subversion/obj-1.7/subversion/libsvn_diff/.libs:/home/pm/sw/subversion/obj-1.7/subversion/libsvn_subr/.libs:/home/pm/sw/subversion/obj-1.7/subversion/bindings/swig/perl/libsvn_swig_perl/.libs > > I think that's been the case for a long time.
