We do get questions about SVN on Synology NAS every so often. I'm away from
my computer right now but you can try searching the mailing list archives
(see [1]) but as far as I know, whoever made the package for Synology
hasn't identified themselves to this community, so we don't know who they
are. If they list ASF as the author of the package, that's not exactly
correct: Apache Subversion provides source code releases, not binaries or
packages or other products built on top of our source releases. Those are
separate projects. It would be a good thing if the package author
identified themselves correctly. Putting ASF as the author of that package
causes confusion for people like you who come here looking for help with
the package. This is frustrating for everyone.
