Re: Apache Subversion 1.8.3 released

2013-09-03 Thread Nico Kadel-Garcia
Consonant with the Subversion 1.8.3 and 1.7.13 releases, I've updated my
github published packages for building them locally on RHEL 6.x. They're at:

   https://github.com/nkadel/subversion-1.7.x-srpm
   https://github.com/nkadel/subverison-1.8.x-srpm

They're tested and running on some CentOS and Scientific Linux environments
I use, with updated versions of get-deps.sh in the git repository and some
Fedora 19 patches applied for consistency with RHEL environments. For those
of you who need these up to date versions RHEL 6, enjoy!
