I'm going to go ahead with this update in hopes of resolving some
windows client problems that may be confounding our efforts to
run windows tests with buildbot.

Sounds good. I'll announce that the repo will be down for maintenance

Just FYI, during a dry run this morning I hit an obvious snag: The
subversion packages on svn.zope.org are so ancient that they cannot
create FSFS backends. What I was able to test so far is dumping: It
takes just 10 minutes and creates a file 1.1GB in size, so that's good.
I had a look at the packages on the box and luckily the (rather
obscure) source they are from does supply newer ones:
http://summersoft.fay.ar.us/pub/subversion/latest/redhat-9.0/bin/
From eyeballing the RPM requirements and then doing a dry-run the
packages that will need updating are...
- swig (1.3.19-1.1 to 1.3.19-3)
- subversion (1.0.6-1 to 1.2.3-1)
- subversion-tools (1.0.6-1 to 1.2.3-1)
- subversion-python (1.0.6-1 to 1.2.3-1)
This additional packages needs to be installed for svn-tools:
- subversion-perl (1.2.3-1)
Since I cannot do any test right now for loading the dumpfile into a
FSFS-based repository I suggest doing this package upgrade beforehand.
It only takes a few minutes. I cannot make any guarantees that nothing
will break, however. The only major upgrade to a running SVN setup that
I have done was 1.1 to 1.2.1 and that was perfectly fine.
How should I proceed?
