Subversion, Fedora, 1.01 & DB problems

OK - reinstalled db42-4.2.52-0.1, but still can't Uvh to a later
version. Also, still can't determine whether it is installed correctly
and the configure script can't find it... It still worries me that there
a two versions installed...

I have tried various 'hacks' from looking over old posts but no luck.

Really frustrated that I can't figure this out so would appreciate any
help.

Toby.

Dimitri - thanks for the reply. The trouble is that I (in theory!) have
db42 installed. I have tried removing this to reinstall, but of course
dependency hell takes over:

db42-4.2.52-0.1
[root@fedora root]# rpm -e db42
error: Failed dependencies:
        libdb-4.2.so is needed by (installed) apr-util-0.9.5-0.4
[root@fedora root]# rpm -e apr-util
error: Failed dependencies:
        libaprutil-0.so.0 is needed by (installed) httpd-2.0.48-1.2
        libaprutil-0.so.0 is needed by (installed) mod_perl-1.99_12-2
        libaprutil-0.so.0 is needed by (installed) subversion-0.37.0-1
        apr-util >= 0.9.5 is needed by (installed) subversion-0.37.0-1
        apr-util >= 0.9.5 is needed by (installed)
subversion-server-0.37.0-1
[root@fedora root]#

I thought I would try a different tack and download the 1.02 source and
compile and make since this negates the 42 detection problem if I
understand correctly... However, the is still an issue of missing DB. So
it seems like I'm in a bit of a tangled web and can't escape...!

My thinking is that perhaps db42 is not installed properly - what's the
best way to check this?

Many thanks,

Toby.

As far as I know you don't need to upgrade/remove the existing BDB
4.1.25 package. You can install the new BDB 4.2.52 side by side with the
old BDB 4.1.25.

That's precisely why the RPM package has been named db42, as opposed to
db4. So that you don't have to upgrade/remove the old package and avoid
dependency hell.
