Hi, I also stumbled upon this problem. Any news since three years? It is just unusual if Debian provides a package that contains server features but there is not even a hint in the docs (for instance README.Debian) how to start the server. If I personally would maintain such a package I would even split up the package into two (perhaps three): subversion-client and subversion-server (perhaps subversion-common).
Kind regards Andreas. -- http://fam-tille.de -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
