Unless you're willing to hand-build custom Subversion RPM packages as
software is updated, including all the dependenies, frankly, none of
the Oracle Linux releases are appropriate. They're moderately modified
versions of RHEL releases, with the branding stripped off and modified
for Oracle's particular software requirements, and are not ideal for
most open source software services. Frankly, I'd consider using a
leading edge Fedora release to ensure up-to-date versions of the
Subversion build requirements already built into the operating system.

And *segregate* file and print server, basic web server,
virtualization host, GUI, etc from the Subversion base repository
service. By thinking of those as modular components with distinct
requirements, you're much more likely to do each of them well without
running into service compatibility hell.
