I Just want to say that you guys are AWESOME and this saved my day. I've been battling this for a long time and just found this. THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR EFFORTS I LOVE THIS COMMUNITY!

I've emailed Sebastien:
Subversion problems on Maemo 5
From: Ajack <*******>
To: sebastien.lelong@gmail.com
Hi Sebastien,
The current version of subversion is having problems and we've identified the
following two packages as the culprit. They are libaprutil1 and libapr1. You
can find out more from the TMO thread at URL
http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...ght=subversion
Since you are listed as the maintainer of the two libraries, I was hoping you
can look into this problem so that this problem is resolved.
Regards,
Adrian (aka ajack)

I appreciate his (Sebastien Lelong) honesty and we do have a solution... maybe we can get TMO to downgrade the repos... but I am sure there are various QA issues involved. What now brown cow?

Hello Guys,
Has some one been able to figure out if libapr is a dependecy for some package except for subversion, because it seems that the latest version of both libapr1 and libapr-util1 was patched for n900 using debian guidelines.
Also the source packages available at the package instance page dont seem to be proper because they had some files missing.
Therefore I had to download sources from subversion website again to recompile it.
Mece's versions are more stable than the latest versions for libapr1 and libaprutil-1.
For now subversion seems to run fine,
except one problem if the network hangs or connection is lost while checkout subversion stops responding and the drive may get corrupted so please run fsck utility if svn crashes.

@sat2050 they are not "my versions" just the previous versions, that worked 
anyway, you can request to maintain the package and then upload fixed versions if you get it working.

To sum it all up in one simple post, it has been identified that the libraries libapr1 and libaprutil1 is causing subversion to crash with a "segmentation fault" error. You can fix this by typing in:
However, this will cause the libraries to be replace when you do a package update with HAM, FAM or apt-get. To prevent these libraries from updating to the latest, create or edit the file at:
/etc/apt/preferences
And add in the following entires into the file:
This will pin the libraries and prevent them from being updated with the newer/faulty versions.
There was also reports that people had problems getting the older version of the two libs files. To download these two files, go to the following two URLs:
http://maemo.org/packages/view/libaprutil1/
http://maemo.org/packages/view/libapr1/
To install these DEBs, use the following command (as root):
Hope this helps.

Code:
sudo apt-get install libaprutil1=1.3.9-2 libapr1=1.4.2-1
/etc/apt/preferences
And add in the following entires into the file:
Code:
Package: libaprutil1 Pin: version 1.3.9-2 Pin-Priority: 1001 Package: libapr1 Pin: version 1.4.2-1 Pin-Priority: 1001

http://maemo.org/packages/view/libaprutil1/
http://maemo.org/packages/view/libapr1/
To install these DEBs, use the following command (as root):
Code:
dpkg -i <deb_file_armel.deb>

This is great news! However, I get the error message:
For libapr1 it is the same problem...
Do you have an idea why this can be?
Thanks in advance!
E: Version '1.3.9-2' for 'libaprutil1' was not found
Do you have an idea why this can be?
Thanks in advance!
Moving forward, we should report this to the maintainer and let them sort this out. Looking at the "apt-cache show libaprutil1" output, the maintainer is sebastien.lelong@gmail.com, do you want me to email this person?
