Can subversion package be made to work on RN51600 with 6.6.x?
I've installed and uninstalled subversion many times, never seems to do anything. Discussions on the board suggest it can be fixed by using root ssh (which I won't do) and adding the missing WebDAV m...

Daniel Shahaf of Apache contacted me and said Apache definitely did NOT do the subversion build for ReadyOS, but he didn't know who.
That leaves WANdisco and Netgear. WANdisco hopefully will contact me today or at least this week.

The author / packager was "ReadyNAS Guru" who no longer seems to be registered here.

If he's not registered any longer then his Apps may never be updated and will eventually break also.
This is not cool.
Can a Netgear employee at least relabel the subversion package as belonging to ReadyNAS Guru, so there's no more confusion?
Since he's a partner of Netgear per the developer license, presumably they have his real contact info, name, phone, email. Can someone at Netgear reach out? Is he deceased, retired?

It already does say that at apps.readynas.com. I'm not sure why the available apps page says "apache".
It could well be using the standard apache debian package BTW.

Perhaps it did... over 4 years ago. It's been broken since at least early 2014 and people are fixing it by ssh'ing in as root and patching it.
No one realizes this is an unacceptable situation?
