Note that «sudo apt install svn» would fail too, even though svn(1) _is_ likely packaged in your distro. To find a package that contains a file of a given name, there's apt-file(1) from the eponymous package. (But there's no guarantee that the collabnet thing is packaged in the repositories your apt(8) uses…) > Seems such a pity that a tool like Subversion can be so broken by some > "upgrade" that it becomes unusable...
