First questions first - Anybody want to recommend a location to download precompiled packages in general? Is there a different answer for solaris versus opensolaris? (I have some systems running solaris, and others running opensolaris). I checked the subversion page and they point me to sunfreeware.
I'm trying to install svn, and finding it a PITA. In my most recent attempt, I installed all sorts of improperly compiled or linked packages from sunfreeware, with incorrect version dependency information. Then I saw somebody's comment about how blastwave is better than sunfreeware specifically because things end up built correctly. Then I saw that blastwave only has svn 1.4.5 available, which is shameful. I require a minimum 1.5. I have gone down the hairy path before, attempting to build my own svn from source. It's not an experience I'd like to repeat. But I haven't tried it yet on this system. Thanks for any suggestions.
