Thanks David - I did notice that yum reveals subversion-devel.i386
0:1.0.2-2.1 for example; do you mean that this may be a more recent
version but without an updated name?
I still think it may be useful to know about updated RPM repositories
though if you have any ideas.
Toby.

Redhat (and the Fedora project) generally doesn't release new versions
of software. Instead, they port the changes to the version originally
provided in the original release. There's already an update for
subversion available via 'up2date' or 'yum'.
