about building and using Subversion.

Subversion is very modular. It has a plugin-interface for "remote
access" libraries. The one using WebDAV/deltav is the most generic one
(easiest to get through firewalls due to HTTP/HTTPS). There is also
one for local access and a relatively new remote one which uses it's
own protocol (therefore not needing a web-server installed).

I am not sure, what is default for Apache (too many mods ;-), but the
mods are easily available. The biggest caveat is to make sure that
Apache and Subversion use the same apr (and apr-utils?) libs, but that
is something the Subversion packages should already have taken care of.

Oden has packaged Subversion for some months now.

Because it is modular (there is a lib extra for writing clients for
subversion), and the libs are already there, RapidSVN shouldn't need
anything except the package subversion-client-common.
