Build Subversion 1.4.3 in Ubuntu Edgy
February 11, 2007 – 19:49 | LAMP, UbuntuYou'd (I did) think now that we have all figured out how to build 1.4.2 in Edgy, building 1.4.3 should be just some rather boringly repeated procedure. Nope.
For the APR and APR-UTIL packages required by subversion, there are libapr0, libapr1.0, and libapr1 and their corresponding libaprutil* in Synaptic. Despite that the libapr0 description says that it is "currently used by Apache2, Subversion...", or that 1.4.2 was happily built with libapr1.0, you want to get libapr1/libapr1-dev/libaprutil1/libaprutil1-dev, and use this configure line: (I don't care much about accessing through webdav)

./configure --with-ssl --with-apr=/usr/bin/apr-config --with-apr-util=/usr/bin/apu-config

I also needed to point ./configure to my neon config.
./configure --with-ssl --with-apr=/usr/bin/apr-config --with-apr-util=/usr/bin/apu-config --with-neon=/usr

I succeeded by roughly following the steps listed at:

Careful with the line
./configure –with-ssl
The blog engine was too clever; should be
./configure --with-ssl
