I think he meant it isn't available within the RH version of apt-cache.
It's been available for Debian since the beginning of the project 
AFAIK, since a couple of the svn developers are also big debian fans.

I'll have to check what sources I've been using.  Maybe I'm only using a short list, 
and thus missed it.

Me too actually, but I meant that I didn't have any part of subversion
installed yet. ;-)

RPM hangs up on the apache install because of some date error /
dependency that I can't remember (even with --nodeps).  The latest
Subversion needs apache 2.0.46.  There isn't even an RPM for Apache
2.0.46 at rpmfind (although there is one in the subversion site).

When I realized that I needed to upgrade Apache from 2.0.40 to 2.0.46, I
kinda gave up because it was more work than I wanted to do this weekend.

subversion isn't in the 'package list database' for apt yet.  I did an
apt-get update to freshen my cache first.

thanks Paul for answering, but I think I'm going to try CVS.

Hmmm, I'm amused by the combined use of the phrase 'from scratch' 
and  'rpm' :)

>Not sure what the instructions mean.  Which files do I need?  Which do I

Well, the directions state:

Note 1: For now you will need to install the subversion RPMS with the
rpm "--nodeps" option when the subversion-tools package is
installed.

Note 2: For RedHat 9.x make sure you have the backward compatable
openssl packages installed.

If all you want to do is run this version of the client then
just install the httpd-apr, neon, and subversion RPMs.

To run the Subversion server (via apache), install all the
RPMs except for the devel RPMs. 


So, I take this to mean that:

1. you'll need to use the --nodeps option for installation
2. you'll need to install the openssl packages appropriate for
   use with RH9.

3. if you only want to install the clients, then just install 
   those rpms listed (httpd-apr, neon, and subversion)

4. if you want to install the server to run under apache, then
   then install all the rpms *excpt* the devel rpms.


So, assuming that you are installing a Subversion server, I would 
grab all the packages and install them using the --nodeps option.  
Assuming you copied them to /tmp:

 rpm --nodeps -Uvh /tmp/*.rpm

should do it.

That's kinda what it sounds like, however, there's no real magic 
behind RPM.  It's just like any other package management too.  I 
recommend you look at the man page and use rpm --help to get familiar 
with it.

If you've got apt installed, I would query the cache to see if 
subversion is one of those packages available. If so, I'd use that.
If not, just grab the RPMs from the site you mentioned.

You don't actually need this package, but if you do install it, 
you'll need to use --nodeps as per the instructions.  If you're 
planning on converting a cvs repo to svn, or using any of the hook 
scripts, I'd install it.  If not, you can easily get away without it.

You need to then install, as per the directions, everything except 
the devel packages.
