Did you delete the old RHEL 1.6.11 RPM, to avoid libraries lying around and confusing you? Or binaries turning up in your "commit" scripts due to inherited "PATH" that does not include the new version? To avoid the fun and games, I urge you to grab and test my newly minted Subversion 1.8.0 RPM building tools, at: https://github.com/nkadel/subversion-1.8.x-srpm I've also bundled a libserf SRPM building toolkit at: https://github.com/nkadel/libserf-1.2.x-srpm I've been testing out the 1.8.x features, it's suitable for pushing to Rpmforge. EPEL would take a lot more work because there are key libraries, like "SQLite", that have to be compiled locally even for RHEL 6. And Fedora 19, which is coming out, does not use SysV init scripts at all, it uses system, so the "svnserve" init script will be rejected out of hand. > > > > http://subversion.apache.org/docs/release-notes/1.8.html#auto-reintegrate > > > > the --reintegrate option is now deprecated, its use is discouraged and SVN > should be able to figure that out automatically.
