HelloI've managed to build a working subversion server :wget http://subversion.tigris.org/downloads/ ... 5.0.tar.gzwget http://subversion.tigris.org/downloads/ ... 5.0.tar.gzFirst untar both previously downloaded tgz.cd subversion-1.5.0/zlib./configure && make test && make installcd .../configure --build=sparc-linux --enable-all-static --with-ssl --without-serf --with-zlib=/usr/localmakemake checkmake install56 tests out of 56 must run successfully.The key is to build static otherwise svn and svnsync command coredump ...The problem now is that the subversion server is very very slow, it is not a cpu problem, more a networking I think (the cpu is idle).I'm using svnserve (svnserve -d), it is my usual setup on other platform and I never experienced any slowness (but it wasn't svn 1.5).

Good job!! best SVN news in a long time.If svnserve is slow perhaps, you could try using (http: https:) libapache2-svn.I think apache does not use svnserve. I could be wrong :(.Once the slow bug is solve..It would be grate if the updated binaries could be added to apt-get for everyone to enjoy..keep up the good work :)

OkayI think I've found the problem ...The slowness is due to /dev/random that is VERY slow on this machine.# dd if=/dev/random bs=1k count=1 >/dev/null0+1 records in0+1 records out9 bytes transferred in 16.719820 seconds (1 bytes/sec)Okay I can confirm this is really the problem ...I've replaced /dev/random as /dev/urandom and now it's very fast.I'm recompiling apr to use /dev/urandom so ...:)

Nice find!I wounder if dev/random should be symbolic linked to urandom, so all dependent programs get a boost. Well until dev/random is fixed.I don't see the less random dev/urandom as a large security problems.Is their some ReadyNAS dev around that can add your bins as some sorta plug-in for us all to use?don't get me wrong, cross compiling is fun... but it takes CPU cycles away from the video games and video watching.

Yes, could it be packaged in a nice addon (.bin) now the add-on API has been released?

Good news... Did you use the following configure statement?./configure --build=sparc-linux --enable-all-static --with-ssl --without-serf --with-zlib=/usr/local --with-devrandom=/dev/urandom

Hi,

I backed up /etc/apt/sources.list and updated it to read:

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  libssl-dev: Depends: libssl0.9.8 (= 0.9.8g-10) but 0.9.8e-9 is to be installed
E: Broken packages

This is strange

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libssl-dev: Depends: libssl0.9.8 (= 0.9.8g-10) but 0.9.8e-9 is to be installed
E: Broken packages

Because it is the correct thing: the dev lib depends on 0.9.8g-10 version I don't know why it is not installing the dependency ...
On my machine :

# dpkg -l|grep libssl
ii  libssl-dev     0.9.8g-10      SSL development libraries, header files and
ii  libssl0.9.7    0.9.7e-3sarge5 SSL shared libraries
ii  libssl0.9.8    0.9.8g-10      SSL shared libraries

Usually I use something like that to have a running dev env, maybe you can try:

apt-get update
apt-get install apt dpkg dpkg-dev
apt-get install libc6-dev gcc gdb libtag1-dev uuid-dev g++
apt-get install autoconf automake1.9 intltool libtool
apt-get install libssl-dev libexpat1-dev libapr1-dev libaprutil1-dev libcurl-dev

So, as with my initial attempt in my first post, libtag1-dev is still giving errors :?

Any other ideas what I could be missing?

Hi zfil,

Thanks again for more assistance.

I tried
apt-get --reinstall install libtag1
[/quote]
but still get
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libtag1-dev: Depends: libtag1 (= 1.4-2bpo2.netgear2) but 1.4-2bpo2.netgear1 is to be installed
E: Broken packages

I then tried to do the --reinstall on every other package I'd installed BEFORE triying libtag1 again, but still get the same result.

I think I may have to give up at this stage, and instead use your downloadable tarball in viewtopic.php?f=35&t=23409&p=137837#p137837 instead.

Thanks again for helping with this one, even if I couldn't get it working.

I successfully installed svn by the above instructions. Now, when my readynas gave me this message in the log

"Please reboot your ReadyNAS device to continue with the update process.",

I rebooted and got

"Your ReadyNAS device has been updated with a new firmware image. (RAIDiator 4.1.5)".

Now my svn server is broken.

I readded the lines

svn 3690/tcp
svn 3690/udp

to /etc/services, and

svn stream tcp nowait svn /usr/local/bin/svnserve svnserve -i -r /c/home/svn/repository

to /etc/inetd.conf, and rebooted.

Now I get response from the svn server again but when using tortoisesvn (win) I only get

"Malformed network data".

Now I don't know if I need to reinstall svn.

Thanks for these tips, I got it working too. I had the some of the same issues mentioned in the thread but finally got it working. I didn't realise it would take so long to make and check though, took soooooo long.

Nice one :)
