Subclipse, the Subversion plugin for Eclipse, also has issues: - Debian stable (sarge) and testing (etch) both have subversion 1.1.4. The new server, emu.freenetproject.org, runs debian stable. - Subversion 1.2 is the recommended version. - While Subversion is backwards compatible, Subclipse is not. Furthermore it is very difficult to upgrade subclipse once it has been installed, short of reinstalling eclipse.
