Re: cannot compile subversion 1.4.2 on FC5

Unfortunately I'm getting the same result.. I used the command you mentioned, and the last lines in the output look like:
.............
config.status: subversion/svn_private_config.h is unchanged
config.status: executing mkdir-init commands
configure: WARNING: we have configured without BDB filesystem support

You don't seem to have Berkeley DB version 4.0.14 or newer
installed and linked to APR-UTIL. We have created Makefiles which
will build without the Berkeley DB back-end; your repositories will
use FSFS as the default back-end. You can find the latest version of
Berkeley DB here:

 but when I'm doing make I'm getting the same error:
[root@myhost subversion-1.4.2]# make

Any ideas ?

Correct.

Yes.

./configure --without-berkeley-db

See ./configure --help
