Hi, I have tried installing subversion-1.4.3-1.i386.rpm, but it is asking
for too many dependencies which I could not find online. Please suggest
where I can get the dependencies.
Alternatively, I tried installing subversion using "yum install subversion"
and it always installs SVN 1.1 not 1.4. I am a bit stuck there.
Any help or suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
