Debian have a policy to backport critical security fixes to the Subversion package in their supported OS releases - as do Ubuntu, RedHat, SUSE, and others. Hence there is no need to panic, Debian "lenny" won't reach EOL till 2012-04, cf. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debian. That said, there is merit in having a more up-to-date Subversion release installed. For Debian, try backports.debian.org (shameless plug). -- Michael Diers, elego Software Solutions GmbH, http://www.elego.de
