I wanted it just as badly then, as Subversion had started to phase out CVS at work and on interesting open-source projects: that is why I write this little cheering-up and "advertising" message, as this was originally only announced on dhs.nu (http://bbs.dhs.nu/coding/index.php?request=2233). Keith, please of course feel free to comment! For the record I once tried to get it to cross-compile, I at least figured I did not *required* mmap() (at least for the client part), contrary to premature suppositions made (). But for subversion-1.3.0 and apr-0.9.7 at that time, I had to use the trio library, nice it is not needed anymore! My own stumbling block IIRC was that it required programs to run during build phase, so I was out of luck with cross-compiling, as I had neither native hardware nor emulated working MiNT development setup (which I am about to achieve only now... BTW anyone interested in an up-to-date SpareMiNT-from-scratch procedure?). So perhaps AtariForge should provide Subversion hosting now! ;) And perhaps some good fellow will make RPMs out of the tarballs? Speaking of RPMs where should new ones go? On the original SpareMiNT site? Or does http://dev.sparemint.org/ effectively replace the former and is now officially live?!? If this is the case I think an "official" announcement would be needed! Cheers to all, Guillaume
