Yes, I can't imagine why the Subversion site points to that particular set of binaries for 1.1rc1/OS X, since it seems to have been built without Berkeley DB support.

Actually, if you are just getting started, you can probably use those binaries and just create an fsfs repository. I actually switched my repository from bdb to fsfs, because I had some problems early on that I attribute mainly to Berkeley DB.

I originally got subversion from Fink; I didn't have any problems. Did you try just selecting the Subversion packages you wanted and installing those? (You don't have to worry about pre-installing any dependent packages, Fink should install those automatically -- that's one of the main advantages of using Fink).

If you can't get Fink to work and want to install 1.1rc1, you can try the following:

1) Install Berkeley DB 4.2; go to www.sleepycat.com to get the package.

2) Assuming you've still got old version installed you got from metissian.com, you can probably download the latest source from the Subversion repository and build that. You can find directions at:

... just ignore the pars about Java bindings (unless you are interested in Java bindings of course).

I'm also trying to get subversion working. I installed subversion 1.1rc1
from metissian.com but when issuing this command:


/usr/local/bin/svnadmin create ~/Personal/Programming/WebRepository

I am told:

svn: Unknown FS type 'bdb'

So I installed fink 0.7 and tried to install the db42 packages, which I
think I need, but some install and some say things like:

Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
  db42-ssl-bin: Depends: db42-ssl-shlibs (= 4.2.52-12) but it is not
going to be installed
E: Sorry, broken packages

Ugh.  Now I remember why I have a Mac. :)

One option might be to use a fsfs repository... anyone have any
experience with those?  Or how do I get rid of the "Unknown FS type
'bdb'" error?

Thanks!
