Hi,

I'd like to install svn 1.0.1 on a Mac OS X Server system. I haven't noticed
binaries for the ssl server version being available anywhere so I guess I
install from source using the unstable tree.

I notice that the dependencies include things like python and apache.

I'm worried about having more than one of those kinds of things installed on
OS X Server -- I'm worried about things interfering with each other. For
instance, my understanding is that after installing svn, which causes fink
to install python and lots of other stuff, typing python on the command line
will invoke fink's python rather than the one that comes with OS X. I'm
concerned that that kind of thing could have repurcussions for the normal
operation of my server machine. I'm even more worried about apache.

I could just wait until binaries become available for the packages I want.

But I'm wondering if anyone has feedback about how safe it is to install
lots of packages into fink on an OS X Server system.

Thanks in advance for any help.
