Thanks for the information Joe. I used yum to install the various
packages:
yum install subversion
yum install subversion-devel
yum install mod_dav_svn
yum install subversion-perl
This might be useful to others. This seems to have worked nicely - and
I'm on 1.0.4! Great!
One small issue which may be useful to flag up is that I get the
following error on starting Apache:
Starting httpd: [Fri May 28 12:29:14 2004] [warn] module dav_svn_module
is already loaded, skipping
Strange because I only have httpd.conf loading mod_dav and mod_dav_svn
once... However, so far it seems to work fine, although I haven't tried
it with only mod_dav although it would seem odd that things would work
without mod_dav_svn.
Many thanks once again,
Toby.

1.0.4 was shipped as a Fedora Core 2 update earlier today, just run
"up2date" and you'll get the new packages (may have to wait for mirrors
to catch up).
For security fixes it's sometimes easier to use a backport to be able to
get the update out quicker, so that's what we did for the 1.0.3 fix, but
that is not the general policy for Fedora as it is for RHEL or was for
RHL in the past.
I intend to continue issuing 1.0.x releases as FC2 updates.
Regards,
joe
