    It's possible the binaries from both versions are still on your system. If
I remember correctly, svn compiled from sources installs binaries
in /usr/local/bin, but binaries installed from rpms (on openSuSE 10.3) are
in /usr/bin.

   My advice: try to search for svn binaries on your system and delete the old
ones.
