libneon and suse 8.1

Hi,

i am on the way installing the suse 8.1 version of subversion-1.0.6-2.rpm

After getting the apr for suse 8.1, i have some problems with the needed 
neon-0.24.4-70 library. I managed to get the rpm of neon for suse 8.1 
and tried to install and i got "failed dependecy: GLIBC 2.3 is needed"

I am not a linux expert, but upgrading C libraries is not the way to go 
isnt it? So what can i do at this point?

Thanks

Either there is an official glibc upgrade, or the rpm you downloaded isn't 
really designed for suse 8.1, even if it says it is.

You surely took a wrong package. This one is for 8.1:

ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/apache/neon/8.1-i386/

Unless you are actually trying to build an RPM, you are probably best simply 
getting the latest source tarball from the subversion site.

The tarball contains all the basic deps - neon, apr, apr-util. If you want 
access to local repositories, you will need berkeley db installed first. 
(Except if using 1.1.x and the new fsfs repository format).

Hi,

thanks so far for answers. After building libneon from source without
getting any .so after make install, i stopped that approach.

When i download the the subversion-1.0.6-2.src.rpm, is there everything
i need in terms of 3rd party libs? So that i can go and build that from
source? Or should i use: subversion-devel-1.0.6-2.i586.rpm  ??

I will do everything possible to let Subversion fly. I am quite familiar
with compiling things on linux, so that wont stop me, i just need the
correct bundle to start with.

thanks

marc...

in order to use subversion (and any other linux app) and to make sure you
don't have any compatibility issues, the only really sure fire way is to
build everything, all the time, from source...!!!

that said, you're not going to want to do that all the time (nor should you
really have to... ) you're going to need to look around (rpmfind.net,
etc...) to try to find the latest/best versions of the required apps for
subversion.

unfortunately, you might run into situations where you have version
conflicts.. in some cases, you can simply force install the latest version
of a lib, and everything works correctly.. in others, you have to bite the
bullet and build from source.

you might check yum/apt-get/etc.. as tools that try to help in this area.
however, there is no single tool (to my knowledge) that really solves the
issue of lib dependency across multiple apps in a comprehensive manner....

i'm fairly certain that there are libs already created for subversion, and
the associated apps that should work on your version of suse...

good luck..
