Package: subversion
Version: 1.7.14-1+b1
Severity: normal

In KDE on Debian Testing/Jessie, when checking out a new working copy
from a repository located on a server, with the svn command line
client, the client seg faults. The configuration file for subversion
is the default one from this package. Kwallet is installed and
apparently the segmentation fault happens when the subversion client
contacts kwallet for storing the password. But it only happens when
there is no working copy present.

A work around is to check out a working copy in a virtual terminal,
without any kwallet involved. Once the working copy is there,
subversion works ok from a terminal run in KDE. For instance when
updating the working copy or making a commit. The first time
subversion asks for a password and apparently suceeds in storing the
password in kwallet. On subsequent updates or commits, the password
now stored in kwallet is used.

Clearly, the initial check out should also work.

There is bug #634073 about svn launching kwallet, but the problem here
is not identical and the bug relates to older versions of subversion
as well as kwallet.
