** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: subversion
  
  I have a server Ubuntu 9.04 x86_64. I need to install an svn server on
  the machine. I installed the subversion package from the repository, but
  whenever I try to do any operation via svn+ssh://, the svnserve binary
  on the server segfaults. The error in dmesg is as follows (the locations
  of the ip and sp vary across multiple invocations of the svnserve
  binary):
  
  [104886.443703] svnserve[19935]: segfault at 7f8bb8c7a788 ip
  00007f8bb7f71d16 sp 00007fffc0c92420 error 4 in
  libdb-4.6.so[7f8bb7ebb000+13a000]
  
  kaust...@alpha:~$ lsb_release -rd
  Description:    Ubuntu 9.04
  Release:        9.04
  
  kaust...@alpha:~$ apt-cache policy subversion
  subversion:
    Installed: 1.5.4dfsg1-1ubuntu2
    Candidate: 1.5.4dfsg1-1ubuntu2
+ 
+ UPDATE: This turned out to be an error with the Berkeley DB backend. We
+ upgraded the OS from 32-bit to 64-bit, but did not upgrade the svn DB
+ files to 64-bit. However, it would be helpful if svn/Berkeley DB exited
+ gracefully, instead of segfaulting. The problem was solved by recreating
+ the svn db files.
