You don't need the Subversion Python bindings to run hotbackup.py, it doesn't 
use them.

$ grep '^ *import' tools/backup/hot-backup.py.in
import sys, os, getopt, stat, string, re, time, shutil
   import subprocess
       import tarfile
       import zipfile

Replying on users list:

Assuming you have SVN already installed and running;

- Install the svn python bindings onto the server. The bindings version 
should correspond to your version of svn.

- Get the copy of hot-backup.py.in from tools\backup and copy it to 
where you want to execute it from (server side) and change the name to 
hot-backup.py

- Edit hot-backup.py and change the following:
a) shebang line (optional)

b) Change the occurences of @SVN_BINDIR@ to point to the bin directory 
of your subversion installation

c) Edit the num_backups variable to the desired number of backups you 
want to keep around (optional).


- Now you should be able to run the program.

users@subversion.tigris.org is a better mailing list for this sort of question.
