Thanks for help Hari,
and here is what i did to get going.
http://www.blastwave.org/packages.php/pysvn
http://www.blastwave.org/packages.php/subversion
http://www.blastwave.org/packages.php/python
Downloaded dependencies required for subversion, subversion itself and then
got the pysvn and python from this website and then made sure that when I
run .py files it takes the python that got installed from this
website, i.ebasically set the PYTHONPATH.
Then all set.
This website provides compiled binaries for solaris .
Cheers !
