Hi, I'm attempting to build SVK using latest strawberry perl. It has an external dependency on subversion perl bindings, and I'm encountering issues.
After hours of trying, I was unable to get a working installation - the strawberry perl site does not seem to provide source code, and the binary bundles do not provide perl headers/libs required to build perl bindings. The only documentation on the site points to an outdated svk wiki page which suggests using pre-built bindings from subversion.tigris.org. But the subversion project stopped providing bindings after being acquired and migrated to apache. They do link to third-party sites, but the only one that provides bindings does so for a single visual studio activeperl build, which has compatibility issues with strawberry perl (judging from all the test errors I get). Strawberry perl's cpan also attempts to build its own bindigs by trying to install Alien-SVN, however it fails because 1) it tries to run a .sh script and a configure script, 2) it's not standalone and still requires a lot of prerequisite crap, 3) refuses to build against sqlite and 4) even if it did, there's still no perl headers/libs to build against. So I'm asking - could strawberry perl provide these bindings for every strawberry perl release, either bundled, or as a separate install?
