Both are required by Subversion.
I have prototype packages installed on my machine right now. I'll make apr, then apr-util, sequentially available for review once my previous ITP (neon) has finished the review process. Meanwhile, I'm posting this ITP to solicit votes.

Did I miss the url's for this cygwin tar.bz2? People are already voting without any package to review?
Max, can you please post your apr and apr-util urls, so that I can finish the svn src installation and check it. Or does apr*-0.9.4 compile out-of-the box?
./configure --enable-layout=RedHat --libexecdir=/usr/sbin/
I assume.
Dave's datadir defines --datadir=/usr/share, which should be /var/www. layout=RedHat defines libexecdir /usr/lib/apr which should be /usr/sbin/
Otherwise I agree with Nicholas, to built svn with the included (duplicate) static apr and apr-utils libs, regardless of code bloat.
Dave Slusher already did that.
I don't have a vote, but I would vote no on apr, apr-utils, until
stipe's status is verified.
And as Max already said, Dave should fix his svn build to include the server and clean up the build mess: autom4te.cache, fix the doc paths and use the external neon built if found. Probably just the
--with-neon=/usr line is enough, to find /usr/bin/neon-config
Then his patch (1.3MB) would also be much smaller (4KB). -- Reini Urban http://xarch.tu-graz.ac.at/home/rurban/
