We received this bug report on subversion 1.3.2 in the Debian bug tracking system. Can anybody shed some light on this? I haven't yet tried to reproduce it with trunk or 1.4.
Thanks, Peter ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Daniel Jacobowitz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: perl bindings are broken with swig 1.3.28 To see the problem, download trunk SVK (and install its myriad horde of dependencies - there are a bunch of new ones since the last Debian svk package) and run its test suite. You'll get lots of errors talking about an invalid const char * argument to svn_fs_node_created_rev. I tried rebuilding _Fs.so using swig 1.3.25 and then it worked. This might be a bug in Swig; I don't know. What appears to be happening is that a Path::Class::Dir object is being passed. Swig wants a const char *. With another version of swig, magic happens, and the stringify operator is called to create the desired string. With the more recent swig, it doesn't happen. The generated swig files are too twisty for me to make a guess at whether the bug is in Subversion or swig.
