On RHEL4 / RHEL5, I find it ridiculously easy to build svn from source.
Here is my build script:
#!/bin/bash
VERSION=1.6.12
INSTALLDIR=/usr/local/subversion-$VERSION
SRCDIR=${INSTALLDIR}/src
mkdir -p $SRCDIR
cp subversion-${VERSION}.tar.bz2 $SRCDIR
cp subversion-deps-${VERSION}.tar.bz2 $SRCDIR
cd $SRCDIR
tar xjf subversion-${VERSION}.tar.bz2
tar xjf subversion-deps-${VERSION}.tar.bz2
rm subversion-${VERSION}.tar.bz2
rm subversion-deps-${VERSION}.tar.bz2
mv subversion-${VERSION}/* .
rmdir subversion-${VERSION}
./configure --prefix=$INSTALLDIR --with-ssl && \
make && \
make install && \
echo "" && \
echo "installed ok: ${INSTALLDIR}/bin/svn"
cd -
