Re: Repo for latest 1.9 svn binaries for 32-bit RHEL 6?

Hi Doug:

The reason is pretty simple: we develop embedded software for a 32-bit platform and compile for both the target (using a cross compiler) and also natively so we can run unit and integration tests on our CentOS workstations. Our application is not (yet) 64-bit compatible. Now I know I can run a 32-bit compiler on a 64-bit host OS, but we also need to support a bunch of older projects on our 32-bit infrastructure and we haven’t taken the time to qualify them all on x86_64. I’m in the process of automating the CentOS 7 x86_64 installation but have hit a few snags along the way. Eventually (3-6 months) we will be moving to 64-bit CentOS 7 (or possibly 64-bit Ubuntu), but until then we will continue to use 32-bit CentOS 6. So if it’s not too much of a hassle, I would really appreciate if you can turn the 32-bit CentOS 6 builds back on.

Thanks,
Alfred

I’ve been using the WANdisco SVN Repo 1.9 (http://opensource.wandisco.com/centos/6/svn-1.9/RPMS <http://opensource.wandisco.com/centos/6/svn-1.9/RPMS>), but it only has version 1.9.5-1 for 64-bit (x86_64). The latest 32-bit binaries in that repo are for version 1.9.4-1, which are almost a year old.
