I spent most of Sunday (8+ hours) trying to compile and install Subversion. Apparently my experience is extremely atypical, but everything finally works now. You can browse my Subversion server in the minimalist Subversion web interface here. Greg Stein's ViewCVS will turn into a ViewSVN at some point, which will provide a much richer interfacegiven Greg is the lead developer for Subversion…
Major thanks go to Eric Gillespie, who was extremely patient with me as I blundered through build problem after build problem with Apache 2, Neon (a WebDAV client library), and Subversion. Also thanks to Sander Striker, who works on Subversion and the Apache Portable Runtime, which both Subversion and Apache make use of.
