CentOS: updating subversion

CentOS / RHEL 4 ship with a rather dated version of Subversion - 1.1.4, and according to a result from google, upgrading it to the latest stable was not possible due to incompatibility with the shipped version of APR [0.9.4]. However, this might not be the case.

Setting up subversion on Kubuntu - Part 1

Configuring SVN and making it accessible over Apache is generally considered to be something of a chore. Therefore, in a burst of foresight, I've decided to log what I do to ensure that I don't have to run through the same rigmarole the next time and possibly benefit others out there who hate this shit as much as I do :S

The aim of Part 1 is to install subversion, set up the appropriate apache modules, create a couple of repositories and allow anonymous read and write access to them across my LAN.
