I think you meant Redhat Enterprise Linux 3?

If so, then I quit supporting DB 4.2.52 on that platform back this last
spring when subversion 1.2.0 came out, I think. It was just too much of a
hassle. Once you start changing the DB version then you have to change HTTPD,
PHP, Python, Perl, and other packages to remain consistent; a royal mess.

My goal for the subversion RPMs was to be the least intrusive as possible
and not have to change out a whole load of RPMs, so I gave up trying to
support the DB 4.2.52 on the RHEL3 platform.

On RHEL4 it is back in and on the other platforms I support (7.3, 8.0,
9.0) it is in.

You can compile a special version of Subversion to use DB 4.2.52 if you
like but if you want to use Apache HTTPD then things start getting very
complicated very fast.

Does this help you at all? You could look back in the Subversion
packages/rpm/rhel-3 directory at my versions before I
dropped support for DB 4.2.52 to see how I used to try to do it.
