Hello, I've retrieved the /subversion-1.6.11 tarball from http://subversion.tigris.org/downloads/subversion-1.6.11.tar.bz2 .
I can configure and build it with serf- eg configure: serf library configuration checking serf.h usability... yes checking serf.h presence... yes checking for serf.h... yes checking for serf_context_create in -lserf-0... yes The build proceeds error-free, but after I install and run it, I don't have http access- $ svn ls http://anywhere.example.com svn: Unrecognized URL scheme for 'http://anywhere.example.com' $ svn --version svn, version 1.6.11 (r934486) compiled May 31 2010, 16:03:27 Copyright (C) 2000-2009 CollabNet. Subversion is open source software, see http://subversion.tigris.org/ This product includes software developed by CollabNet (http://www.Collab.Net/). The following repository access (RA) modules are available: * ra_svn : Module for accessing a repository using the svn network protocol. - handles 'svn' scheme * ra_local : Module for accessing a repository on local disk. - handles 'file' scheme Here's the config & sys info- $ uname -a OpenBSD pinky.yary.ack.org 3.9 GENERIC#617 i386 $ ./configure '--with-apr=/usr/local/apr/bin/apr-1-config' '--with-apr-util=/usr/local/apr/bin/apu-1-config' '--with-serf=/usr/local/serf' '--enable-runtime-module-search' '--with-apxs=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs' '--with-berkeley-db' '--without-neon' I have different apache2's installed, the apr, apu, and apxs listed are all from the same build. One thing that's a little odd, even with the "--without-neon" line, configure still complains: configure: checking neon library An appropriate version of neon could not be found, so libsvn_ra_neon will not be built. If you want to build libsvn_ra_neon, please either install neon 0.29.0 on this system or get neon 0.29.0 from: http://www.webdav.org/neon/neon-0.29.0.tar.gz unpack the archive using tar/gunzip and rename the resulting directory from ./neon-0.29.0/ to ./neon/ no suitable neon found -y
