Re: svn aix subversion-1.5.4 issue

Hello Pedro

It wasn't able to find the library (or AIX seems to call them modules)
libsvn_client-1.so . It probably expects them to be in
/opt/subversion-1.5.4/lib .

The following command shows the libraries svn uses and where it found
them, I guess it shows that it can't find all libsvn_*.so:

$ ldd `which svn`
    libsvn_client-1.so.0 => /usr/local/svn-1.4.5/lib/libsvn_client-1.so.0
    libsvn_wc-1.so.0 => /usr/local/svn-1.4.5/lib/libsvn_wc-1.so.0
    libsvn_ra-1.so.0 => /usr/local/svn-1.4.5/lib/libsvn_ra-1.so.0
  ... a lot more libs

You could try adding /subversion/aix/lib to the library path:

$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/subversion/aix/lib svn help

If that works you can add that dir permanently to the library path.

Another way is creating the dir /opt/subversion-1.5.4 and a symlink
/opt/subversion-1.5.4/lib pointing to /subversion/aix/lib .

Or you could compile subversion with --prefix=/subversion/aix .

Since this is a usage question it belongs to the
users_at_subversion.apache.org mailing list, please ask there if you need
more help.
