Thanks. I've got the code, now I am having problems building it!

I have expat (and a lot if other (apparently very) necessary stuff)
installed in a non-standard place:

ian3_at_jaguar:~/build/subversion-1.8.9$ pkg-config --libs expat
-L/home/ian3/usr/lib -lexpat
ian3_at_jaguar:~/build/subversion-1.8.9$ pkg-config --cflags expat
-I/home/ian3/usr/include
ian3_at_jaguar:~/build/subversion-1.8.9$ pkg-config --modversion expat
2.1.0

I configure apr and apr-utils thus:

LDFLAGS="-L/home/ian3/usr/lib -Wl,-rpath,/home/ian3/usr/lib"
CFLAGS="-I/home/ian3/usr/include" ./configure --prefix=/home/ian3/usr

LDFLAGS="-L/home/ian3/usr/lib -Wl,-rpath,/home/ian3/usr/lib"
CFLAGS="-I/home/ian3/usr/include" ./configure --prefix=/home/ian3/usr
--with-apr=/home/ian3/usr --with-expat=/home/ian3/usr

and they seem to build and install fine.

I configure subversion with:

LDFLAGS="-L/home/ian3/usr/lib -Wl,-rpath,/home/ian3/usr/lib"
CFLAGS="-I/home/ian3/usr/include" ./configure --prefix=/home/ian3/usr
--with-apr=/home/ian3/usr

but I get this:

cd subversion/svn && /bin/bash /home/ian3/build/subversion-1.8.9/libtool
--tag=CC --silent --mode=link gcc -I/home/ian3/usr/include -pthread
-L/home/ian3/usr/lib -Wl,-rpath,/home/ian3/usr/lib -L/home/ian3/usr/lib

I enclose a MB or so of config.logs in case anyone wants some bed-time
reading ... thanks in advance for any help you can throw my way.

Best wishes,

Ian
