Oh, dear, this is embarrassing. 

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ which svn
/usr/local/bin/svn
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ 

damn. Sorry about that, and thanks for all your help. 

(I needed to do some cunning things, like checking out and compiling
an old version of svn to recover my repository files as the one in
debian was suddenly too new to cope with them a month or so
ago... forgot I had done so). 

oh, well... I got to use dpkg -x, which I've never used
before. Thanks, Matthew.
