For those that are interested, i'm using Edgy and couldn't get its
davfs2 package to work reliably. After my post a few back, Dapper's
version of davfs2 seems a bit flakey.... Feisty's version depends on a
more recent libc6 and libneon.
To get Feisty's current version (1.1.2) running i compiled it from source by:
-sudo bash
-added a line to /etc/apt/sources.list for feisty's "universe" sources.
-cd /usr/src
-apt-get source davfs2
-cd davfs2-1.1.2
-nano debian/control and change libneon26-dev to version 25
-apt-get install libneon25-dev
-dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -uc -b
-dpkg -i davfs2_1.1.2-3_i386.deb
-dpkg-reconfigure davfs2  (to set setuid bit)
-edit /etc/davfs2/davfs2.conf and change the 'dav_group' line to suit

This works perfectly for me, ymmv.

Note: I'm not sure why dpkg-reconfigure leaves the 'dav_group' line as
$group?? is this a bug, since the same happens in the Edgy version.
