Package: libapache2-svn
Version: 1.1.3-1
Severity: normal

Sorry if this is an upstream issue, I didn't have a chance to research
and file it directly there, but it was baffling enough that I thought it
should be filed in case someone else ran into similar symptoms.  It may
have to do with hyphens and underscores, but all I'm sure of is that I
can consistently reproduce it via the below.

I created these symlinks and they're valid (after installing
libapache2-svn and copying dav_svn.conf, .load into my 'mine' copies):

        > ll -d dav-svn-mine.*
        0 lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 35 Feb 19 20:21 dav-svn-mine.conf -> 
../mods-available/dav_svn_mine.conf
        0 lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 35 Feb 19 20:21 dav-svn-mine.load -> 
../mods-available/dav_svn_mine.load

Very wild guess -- maybe it has to do with hyphen being unusable in a
tag as a tag name or key, but underscore is ok (e.g., <FONT-SIZE>
invalid, but <FONT_SIZE> is valid) under HTML and possibly XML as
well.

        > sudo apache2ctl restart
        Syntax error on line 2 of /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/dav-svn-mine.load:
        Cannot load /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_dav_svn.so into
        server: /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_dav_svn.so: undefined
        symbol: dav_xml_get_cdata

Rename the links, though:

        > sudo mv dav{-svn-,_svn_}mine.conf
        > sudo mv dav{-svn-,_svn_}mine.load

and they look ok:

        > ll -d dav_svn_mine.*
        0 lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 35 Feb 19 20:21 dav_svn_mine.conf -> 
../mods-available/dav_svn_mine.conf
        0 lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 35 Feb 19 20:21 dav_svn_mine.load -> 
../mods-available/dav_svn_mine.load

And voila, no errors.
