AW: to devs: please provide binaries for 1.5-beta

no, it's complaining now about neon. I have installed the debian package for neon26.
Also I have installed all kinds of additional libneon26-xxx packages.

relocation R_X86_64_32 against `a local symbol' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
/home/subversion/download/subversion-1.5.0-beta1/neon/src/.libs/libneon.a: could not read symbols: Bad value
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [subversion/libsvn_ra_neon/libsvn_ra_neon-1.la] Error 1

I suppose the error is related to the AMD64-gcc which doesn't fully conform with the 32bit-edition, as described in that document from gentoo.org.
I am afraid if I want svn1.5 to compile on this AMD64-based installation in the end I will have to recompile more or less the whole system in order to get completely rid of the "recompile with -fPIC" messages.... So having the binaries could possibly safe numerous hours ...

The very same message?

You should of course remove your custom zlib install, install zlib-dev
(which you already did), remove your subversion-1.5-beta1 source tree
and start from scratch, all over again.

Otherwise your subversion build will keep trying to link to your
custom (and broken) zlib library.

I would try compiling against the zlib library provided by the
distribution before compiling it myself. You're using Debian,
not Gentoo, right?
