You're going to have to spend a long time working around this restriction to download the many packages necessary to support building a complex package like Subversion. "apt-get build-essential" would normally get you started, and that covers a bare minimum ~20+ packages just for doing general package-building. I just checked a recent Debian (Ubuntu is mostly Debian, so the package dependencies are usually almost identical), and Subversion's own build requirements add another 124 packages. Also note that this was on a VM I periodically do custom PHP builds on, so there are probably as many as 30 -dev packages that overlap with the full set necessary for building Subversion, already installed. Or you're going to have to spend quite a bit less time working around this restriction to download prebuild Subversion packages and the handful of dependencies it needs to run. -kgd
