This error means that «python -c 'from hashlib import md5'» fails on your system. It is does not shed light on the mod_dav_svn problems.¹ You can try running the tests manually with 'cd subversion/tests/cmdline && ./basic_tests.py', possibly passing --bin=/usr/local/bin to test already-installed binaries. (That will run just a subset of the tests.) It would also be interesting to see how far davautocheck reaches (it is invoked as «make davautocheck APACHE_MPM=…» or «cd subversion/tests/cmdline && APACHE_MPM=… ./davautocheck.sh»). I'm curious to see whether it will successfully set up an httpd instance or not. Note that if it successfully sets up httpd, it will fail over the hashlib issue after that. Cheers, Daniel ¹ It _could_ conceivably be related, since mod_dav_svn is a shared library for httpd and the hashlib module is sometimes implemented as a shared library for the CPython interpreter — but you'd probably have noticed if multiple programs had trouble loading shared libraries.
