Strange relocation problem

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Hi there,

We just moved our main svn repository from one server to another
(dump, load, ...)

The repository has been renamed, leading to a different URL:

https://www.url.com/svn/oldrepos/
https://www.newurl.com/svn/newrepos/

On most of our systems, subversion 1.1.x flawlessly moved all working
directories with commands like this:

svn switch --relocate https://www.url.com/svn/oldrepos/ https://www.
newurl.com/svn/newrepos/

- - worked like a charm.

Now, one system uses svn 1.4.*, and the same call leads to a quite
puzzling error message:

"Relocate can only change the repository part of an URL"

As the URL actually *is* the "repository part" of the URL (i.e. no
subdirectories in the repository), I don't know what goes wrong here.

Any ideas/suggestions?

with best regards,
   Lars
