Re: I can't make BDB FS(version

It is very possible that the BDB libraries aren't on your machine. At one
time, the Berkeley Database Libraries were standard issue on Unix style
systems, but like much of the Unix world, it was never implemented in the
base Windows OS. (This isn't a rag against Windows. It's that many Unix
style standard libraries and protocols aren't Windows standard issue such as
SSH, FTP, NFS, etc.).

You can try downloading them from Freshmeat:
http://freshmeat.net/projects/berkeleydb/ and see if you can get them
working. Then again, it is very possible that your Windows version of
Subversion doesn't link against them anyway.

Do you have to use the BDB libraries? Most people now use FSFS which is the
default.
