Subversion 1.5.1 still needs libneon.la !!?
I have tried to compile from sources Subversion 1.5.1 on openSuSE 11.0 64
bits. Make fails because cannot find libneon.la library. I quick search
revealed that libneon.la was removed from neon package and subversion should
remove this dependency. I have downloaded again from subversion site the
sources of 1.5.1 but this dependency is still required. When a new release
will be available without this dependency?

SuSE Linux distributions seem to be rather problematic. Their neon
distribution isn't like other Linux distributions.
Our build server is running Novel SuSE Release 9 and we can't get
anything greater than Subversion 1.3 running on it. Even the YST
distributed packages are still either 1.3 or 1.4.
Someone pointed out this link: <http://software.opensuse.org/search>
and claims that there is a binary distribution of Subversion 1.5
available. However, many people are complaining about having to
recompile Apache and other source modules from scratch.
I can easily compile and get Subversion working on almost all Unix and
Linux distros including Mac OS X, but I have a heck of a time on SuSE.

The isssue reads:
"""the latest subversion on :devel will not build without libneon.la, which is
removed from neon by RemoveNonPackageFiles policy."""
The "RemoveNonPackageFiles policy" is presumably an openSuSE policy.
And neither Neon nor Subversion supply the neon.recipe file mentioned in the link.
On MacPorts, the neon port has that file:
$ port installed | grep neon
neon @0.28.2_0 (active)
$ port contents neon | grep neon.la
/Users/blair/my-macports/lib/libneon.la
So it sounds like they are explicitly removing it from the neon openSuSE build
and it needs to get added back in.

Blair

I will ask on the openSuSE list this question, but from the link I found this
issue does not seem to be related to a specific distro:
https://issues.rpath.com/browse/RPL-2131

This sounds more like a openSuSE issue. Do you have the development RPM for
neon installed? That's probably where libneon.la is located.
The latest version of neon installs libneon.la and unless neon moves away from
libtool, which I would find very surprising, Subversion will use and depend on it.
