You do not have a complete software build environment. Your compiler is
missing key pieces (or not installed at all).

You're going to have to spend a long time working around this
restriction to download the many packages necessary to support building
a complex package like Subversion. "apt-get build-essential" would
normally get you started, and that covers a bare minimum ~20+ packages
just for doing general package-building. I just checked a recent Debian
(Ubuntu is mostly Debian, so the package dependencies are usually almost
identical), and Subversion's own build requirements add another 124
packages. Also note that this was on a VM I periodically do custom PHP
builds on, so there are probably as many as 30 -dev packages that
overlap with the full set necessary for building Subversion, already
installed.
Or you're going to have to spend quite a bit less time working around
this restriction to download prebuild Subversion packages and the
handful of dependencies it needs to run.
