Then this should be mentioned in the file. I also think that this is
quite a high hurdle: Admins that want that can surely re-compile
scponly. For the rest, the debian package should come without svn
support. The README.Debian could describe the disabled features, and
under what circumstances they are save, and how best to recompile
scponly.

Greetings,
