Therein lies the problem. I didn't build it. I installed it from the 
Ubuntu repository via apt-get. And as there appeared to be no 
hot-backup.py that came along with it, I thought to just grab the file 
from the source distribution.

So I guess I can either hack the script or hop over to a machine that 
has a build environment and build it there and grab the script from it.

Wonder why Ubuntu's binary package doesn't include it?

Thanks for all your help,
Michael

Well I built the 1.2.0 version on another machine, checked the 
hot-backup.py file, copied it to the svn server machine, and tried it 
with exactly the same results. Flarg!

So I then installed subversion-tools via apt-get, ran it, and now have 
my repo backed up.

Again, thanks for all your help. I can now go back to my Python code. :-)

You can hunt through the file looking for those @SVN_XXX@ symbols, and 
just replace them with the appropriate paths.  No need to spend time 
trying to find a machine with a build environment.

That's a good question. :-)  Actually, I believe there is a package called 
subversion-tools that might contain the script.

No problem.
