Backporting Subversion 1.2.x from Breezy to Hoary would help Subclipse/Eclipse users, because they need Subversion 1.2.x for the latest Subclipse version (which also contains important bugfixes which are not available for old Subclipse versions).
Subversion 1.2.x
Archived thread 52524 from Requests. Markdown source: Requests/thread_52524_Subversion_1.2.x.md
Yes please, this is a real show-stopper for Eclipse/Subclipse users.
If svn 1.2.x is backported can you please ensure that the JavaHL bindings are built by default in the package ?
thanks a lot for your work ! davidv
UP !!!
please ... it is my last blocking thing in Hoary.... and Breezy is still too buggy to be useable...
local repository with subclipse & javaHL for Dapper.
If you are using subversion and eclipse (and subclipse), and would like to access a local repository using the file:// protocol then you need to install libsvn-javahl. Then start eclipse with "eclipse -vmargs -Djava.library.path=/usr/lib/jni/". I am using eclipse 3.1 (custom installation) with subclipse 1.0.2 and libsvn and libsvn-javahl from the Dapper repositories. Sincerely, Aouie
