No, no, I missed that you were using WanDisco RPM's. (Not sure how I missed that, I do sometimes get interrupted doing my email.) I respect WanDisco's work and had no intent to insult them. And if you're using WanDisco, I'd seriously consider a commercial contract with them to take advantage of their multiple-master tools for mirroring Subversion repositories safely. That would actually help *fund* Subversion development. In fact.... If you can, I'd consider making a copy of the repository to another host and testing it with the Wandisco or another Subversion 1.8.0 *server*, not just client. >> I've also bundled a libserf SRPM building toolkit at: > >> https://github.com/nkadel/libserf-1.2.x-srpm > > Thanks. I thought that my original email indicated that we're using svn:// > protocol and thus serf is out of the equation. It's cool. I'm not suggesting you have to locally build or compile serf unless you care to build from my SRPM, It's a dependency for building a full Subversion 1.8.0 toolkit. If you feel like getting into the code yourself, you'll need something like it. In fact......

I made a mistake about the source of your software, and did apologize. Since it's from Wandisco, and you're jumping to the bleeding edge with Subvesion 1.8.x on RHEL 6 based operating systems, why not contact them for commercial support?
