tarball?
A friend of mine is trying to write a FreeBSD port for Subversion. It
has a lot of external dependencies; specifically, the port wants to
download a tarball of APR.
There's a tarball link on the front of http://apr.apache.org, but it's
dead. Are there any other places the script can look for a tarball?

Right now, maybe that's the simplest solution.
But in the long run, if a package in /usr/ports has dependencies on
other stand-alone libraries, it should have explicit dependencies.
For example, Subversion also depends on db3 and neon -- and both of
these packages have their own port. Hopefully, someday APR will too.
Until that day comes, maybe you're right -- maybe it's best just to
assume APR will be included in the Subversion tarball.

Isn't it building from subversion-M3.tar.gz? (which includes the APR
tree)

Well, we don't really want to build it, we just want the source code. Actually
httpd has this feature already, I just need to turn it on for APR.

chuck has got a script to do this for
apr/apr-util
httpd
httpd-proxy
http://cvs.apache.org/builds/httpd-proxy/
that would download the latest CVS snapshot for you.
would that work?
