Hi there
subversion was failing to build in Ubuntu for various reasons
I wanted to share the workaround and fix we have applied with you as
you will probably hit them at some point
One of them is I believe python2.7 related; Barry Warsaw worked on that
one, you might want to get in touch with him about it if you need
further details. I think it's more a workaround than a fix though.
The other one is related to debian/tools/svn-make-config; this seems to
build against the wrong .la file, and misses a link with -lapr. I
suspect this bug is triggered by stricted link flags in Ubuntu (thinks
like --no-add-needed and --as-needed).
I'm attaching the full debdiff of the changes from Barry and myself.
Cheers
