Re: Question on building Subversion.

I was following the INSTALL text document contained in the Subversion 1.4.3 tar file, the first few lines of which are:

               ======================================
                      INSTALLING SUBVERSION
                          A Quick Guide
               ======================================

$LastChangedDate: 2006-10-27 21:27:02 +0000 (Fri, 27 Oct 2006) $

If there is a better set of directions for installing and setting up a Subversion server, please point me to them. Also, if the INSTALL document contained in the Subversion distribution is outdated, may I submit a request to update/remove it?

Thank you,
David

PS: I am probably showing my ignorance here, but what does FSFS stand for?

Why are you using BDB? It's been deprecated - FSFS is the prefered and
recommended repository type (and is now the default).
