I found the reason. There's no missing Linux fragment. Instead I had to
do two things:
1. Install the "subversion-javahl" package using the Package Manager,
i.e. "Add/Remove software". The "subversion-javahl" package is only
visible under the "List" tab and apparently not installed unless you
explicitly do so.
2. Add -vmargs -Djava.library.path=/usr/lib to my Eclipse launcher.
I saw some mention about this in the subversion FAQ. Perhaps it would be
a good idea to include my two steps as a simple way to do it on Fedora?
I was that close to waste more time by actually download the source in
order to build the stuff.
IMHO, in order to save other people the same trouble I had, the JavaHL
debacle on *nix platforms should be thoroughly explained on the
http://subclipse.tigris.org/install.html page. It's not even mentioned
there now.
Kind Regards,
