Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: subversion

Suddenly svn client stoped asking for passphrase and now just connects always 
as anonymous to any newly create repo,
but when I connect to an older repo (create months ago) all works!

For svn:// method, for svnserve -d server.

User A + old repo = works 
User A + new repo = as anonymous always (even after rm -rf ~/.subversion)
User B + new repo = as anonymous always 

Ubuntu 9.10 amd64


REPRODUCE - 5 minute test case - PLEASE CONFIRM MY BUG

apt-get install subversion  # on Karmic 9.10 for example

Start subversion local server (server method: svnserve deamon)
Create a repo and try to import to it - FAIL? 

On the server / as root:
$ mkdir -p /srv/svn/repo/lc
$ cd /srv/svn/repo/lc
$ svnadmin create repofoo

$ killall svnserve
$ /usr/bin/svnserve  -d -r /srv/svn/repo/


On the client / as user:
$ mkdir testsvn
$ cd testsvn/
$ mkdir repofoo
$ cd repofoo
$ echo "some text" > testfile.txt
$ svn import svn://localhost/lc/repofoo -m "importing"

and....?

ON Ubuntu since few days Im getting:
svn: Authorization failed
There is no question about authorization.

*** If you get this, instead of prompt to enter password, then this is the bug 
described. ***
Please confirm my bug and select on top Affects me too.


Btw, I can not force authorization, look:

r...@jumpi(2010-02-12 00:41:21)/srv/svn/repo/lc$ vim repofoo/conf/passwd
r...@jumpi(2010-02-12 00:41:31)/srv/svn/repo/lc$ cat repofoo/conf/passwd
[users]
bob = secret

us...@jumpi(2010-02-12 00:41:04)~/testsvn/repofoo$ svn --username bob import 
svn://localhost/lc/repofoo -m "importing"
svn: Authorization failed
us...@jumpi(2010-02-12 00:41:09)~/testsvn/repofoo$ svn --username bob 
--password secret import svn://localhost/lc/repofoo -m "importing"
svn: Authorization failed


Ubuntu 9.10 amd64 
ii  subversion                                1.6.5dfsg-1ubuntu1 

Btw, using an older already existing repo (created months ago) works
100% fine.
