I'm wondering if you have a problem with the install? I have rhel4 box
here, but I'm using the rpms from redhat ,1.3.2. But from what they
tell me, those shared objects are part of the subversion package:
$ rpm -q --whatprovides /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/libsvn/_repos.so
subversion-1.3.2-0.1.el4.rf
rpm -q --whatprovides /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/libsvn
subversion-1.3.2-0.1.el4.rf

I'm wondering if you might have some version conflicts?
