Ok, decided to give it a quick go before running off to work.

# apt-get install perl-CGI

worked fine and got the latest version, fixing the dependency errors.
apt-get is such a little gem. Red Hat should make it the default package
tool. So now

# rpm -Uvh *.rpm

on the Subversion RPMs works fine. All installed. Woohoo! Not really that
many hoops to jump through to get Subversion installed. The trick is
knowing _which_ hoops to jump through.

Now to get a repository going, but I have the Subversion Book for that.
Thanks for your help.
