That is more a question for a Ubuntu forum. I think there is a backport repository available for Ubuntu but I don't know if it carries Subversion 1.14.1 (for 20.04). I would assume you can't take packages from newer Ubuntu releases - in that case you are probably better off by upgrading to that version.. If you can't find a binary package you can maybe build Subversion yourself. In that case make sure to build the Python bindings for Python 3. Kind regards, Daniel
