Id like to install subversion system in our server (CentOS-4.4)
up2date has the subversion-1.1.4-2, but subversion is already on verson 1.4.2
Perhaps I loose good features if I install subversion-1.1.x, but I prefer to use the version delivered by up2date, of course.
- What do you suggest?
If I try to install subversion-1.4.2 from source it asks for apr and apr-util version 0.9.7 or above but up2date has apr and apr-util version 0.9.4
- If I upgrade it via RPM could I have some compatibilty breaked?
I haven't gone all the way to 1.4.x, but dag/rpmforge have a nice set of 1.3.2 packages that I dropped into our environment (including Trac and Apache-mediated repositories) without any problems whatsoever.
It's not that easy to make subversion 1.4 packages for CentOS 4 or lower. You need apr >= 0.9.7. subversion 1.3.2 included a suitable apr and built it as part of the process, however subversion 1.4 does no longer...
