svn:externals checkout/ls question

Hi everybody,

I'm wondering if it is possible to only checkout an externally linked
resource.

trunk/component_local
trunk/component_external linked via svn:externals

If I now checkout trunk completely, it's fine and the externally linked
resource gets checked out as well.
However:
svn co file:///svnpath/trunk/component_external

fails and also svn ls to file:///svnpath/trunk shows only component_local
and not the stuff linked via svn:propset. I guess that's just a limitation
in svn ls not caring for the props.

Is it at least possible to checkout only component_external? Maybe I'm
just misunderstanding something, but I didn't get it to work.

Cheers,
Thomas
