hot-backup.py : IndexError : list index out of range

Hi,

I'm using Subversion 0.24.2-1 from Debian/unstable. Here's what I get
when I use the hot-backup.py script to make a full backup of my
repository :

xbr@bush:~$ /usr/lib/subversion/hot-backup.py /usr/svnroot
Backup-Subversion/
Beginning hot backup of '/usr/svnroot'.
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/subversion/hot-backup.py", line 100, in ?
    youngest = string.strip(stdout_lines[0])
IndexError: list index out of range

I searched the archives. I found one guy that had the same problem.
The answer was "Did you upgrade your hot-backup.py script? It should be
using 'svnlook youngest', not 'svnadmin youngest' -- is this the case?"
( http://www.contactor.se/~dast/svn/archive-2003-02/0332.shtml )
However, this doesn't work for me. My hot-backup.py does contain the
lines :
# Path to svnlook utility
svnlook = "/usr/bin/svnlook"
, so I think it is not using svnadmin.

Any idea ?

Thank you for having made subversion, I like it,

Xavier Brouckaert
