Hi,

Thanks a lot. I was with the same problem and this worked with RHEL5.

Have you added RPMForge to the list of repositories yum knows about, as described at the bottom of the post? What do you see when you type

ls /etc/yum.repos.d/

The “yum update subversion” says the local version is up to date. So, I cannot use “yum update subversion” because the Yum Server is not providing the latest of subversion of 1.5.5 for the CentOS 64 Bit system.

Next, I do the following:
$ yum erase subversion.i386
$ yum update subversion

And try to install using the following command: rpm -Uvh CollabNetSubversion-client-1.5.5-1.x86_64.rpm having trouble because of other dependencies. It seems that I need to rebuild the subversion locally with all the required libraries.

Again, this is the New CentOS 64 latest with the following uname –a command:

2.6.18-92.1.22.el5xen #1 SMP Tue Dec 16 12:26:32 EST 2008 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Thanks in advanced!

Brian, what happens when you try adding the RPMForge repository and doing

yum install subversion

yum update subversion

What error do you actually get?

I have a new CentOS 5.2 64 Bit system, I am not able to install the latest svn 1.5.5 on the system.

Any one has a proper steps to follow to install svn 1.5.5 on the CentOS 5.2 64 Bit system?

Thanks!
