This usually happens because python cannot dlopen() the shared libraries
needed by the SVN bindings. You are seeing this because you've installed
the svn libs into a non-standard search path (e.g. if you had used
--prefix=/usr/local it would likely just work because the libs would
be found in /usr/local/lib).

Just like you need to add ~/opt/*/bin directories to your PATH to run
the executables you've installed, you need to add all directories
containing libraries that will be dynamically loaded at runtime
to LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

Something like this:
 export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=<HOME_DIR>/opt/svn-1.6.15/lib

You may need even more entries in this list if those libs depend
on other libraries that aren't in the standard search path either.
