Re: [opensuse] subversion install (Suse 9.3)

Hello,

Installing subversion from source and I was able to find the Berkeley DB
files needed to compile (loaded the development package from the DVD),
however although Apache2 is installed (from the DVD) I can't locate the apxs
files. Any ideas on where I can find the apxs?


SUSE 9.3 is soon to be abandoned (apr 30 2007) .

you dont really want to run 9.3 as well as you dont really want to
compile subversion from source ( asking where apxs is found is clear
symptom you dont ;P )

Good news:

newer Subversion is available in the buildservice for 9.3.

Bad news:

It does not compile with apr shipped with 9.3 anymore (too old). so you
will need to upgrade apr as well ( and probably apache, PHP and whaetevr
else you are using..so you might end upgrading more than you want ;P )


if you want to do this:

add the following sources to your package manager


http://ftp-1.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/repositories/Apache/SUSE_Linux_9.3

http://ftp-1.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/repositories/Subversion/Apache_SuSE_Linux_9.3/

and then upgrade subversion. (note that f.e mod_php will not work
anymore and you will need a php upgrade too in that case)


Cya.
