Re: Bad URL passed to RA layer

Apache is only needed if you want to set up a subversion server. Are
you sure you've read the latest INSTALL file? ;-)

     http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/INSTALL

Berkeley DB is not necessary either -- at least not for the initial
checkout you're trying to do. You only need Berkeley DB if you want
to build a server, or if you want your client to able to access
'local' repositories on disk.

Really, this is a mystery. Try doing this:

  1. Remove all libsvn_* libraries from /usr/local/lib/

  2. make clean

  3. ./configure --disable-shared --enable-maintainer-mode

  4. make

  5. svn --version

      You should see ra_dav listed as being available

  6. subversion/clients/cmdline/svn co http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk
