The isssue reads:

"""the latest subversion on :devel will not build without libneon.la, which is
removed from neon by RemoveNonPackageFiles policy."""

The "RemoveNonPackageFiles policy" is presumably an openSuSE policy.

And neither Neon nor Subversion supply the neon.recipe file mentioned in the link.

On MacPorts, the neon port has that file:

$ port installed | grep neon
   neon @0.28.2_0 (active)
$ port contents neon | grep neon.la
   /Users/blair/my-macports/lib/libneon.la

So it sounds like they are explicitly removing it from the neon openSuSE build
and it needs to get added back in.

Blair
