Hi All,
Has anyone compiled Subversion for Sharp ROMs (I'm using Watapon 1.4.1 on 5600)? I didn't find it in elsix or in google, and it'd be pretty handy to have on my Z I think. Thanks! steven |

I tried to cross-compile it, but haven't succeeded, because it needs to run some generated programs during the build. It should be possible to compile it natively on the Zaurus, but currently I haven't installed the development stuff.

I assume you talk about the client only?
Dave Kessler from Kopsis Engineering has put a svn client for pdaXrom: http://kopsisengineering.com/rc11/ He used to be (or perhaps still is) active in the Sharp ROMs as well, so you might try to ask him... he posts regularly on this forum. |

At one point I tried doing Subversion for Cacko but ran into a variety of problems. At the time it wasn't worth struggling through ... instead I installed Debian pocket workstation and just used the standard Debian subversion package that way.
Now that I'm running pdaXrom, I no longer have a native environment to compile for Sharp ROMs. My x-dev environment works great for some things, but large projects with complex build systems like Subversion can be mighty difficult to x-compile. |

The package from kopsis works on the Cacko ROM as well. I have stripped the libraries (reduced size from 3.5 MB to 1.3 MB), put them into /opt/QtPalmtop instead of /usr (don't know if that's better, it's just where I put all programs) and added a dependancy on libiconv.
The resulting packages are attached for those interested. 
svn_ipk.tar ( 1.25MB )
Number of downloads: 194One small problem: If you have LANG set, it doesn't work - use "LANG=C svn" then. I guess it's a problem with missing locale stuff, perhaps someone else knows a better solution? |

Just a quick thanks for compiling it.
I also note that the link to Dave Kessler / Kopsis Engineering svn client is dead: http://kopsisengineering.com/rc11/ Has there been any further movement on a more official subversion client compile? |

I'm actually after the svn server to run on the Z if it's practical. Seeing as this is the device I'll have all the time it makes sense to have it as the server (providing I sync the database of course). I'd be interested in a pdaXrom version.

Yes, but it's a hack  You can comment the LANG-related code in subversion/libsvn_subr/cmdline.c Like that svn will always work in LANG=C, ignoring any specific locale you may have set. Since I didn't find subversion in elsix, I've gone ahead and compiled it too... At least it is in elsix now. |

I'm also interested in a pdaXrom version of svn, whether kopsis' version or anything newer. I can't find svn in pdaXrom's official/contrib feed. |

QUOTE Since I didn't find subversion in elsix, I've gone ahead and compiled it too... At least it is in elsix now. Nice. Can you do a 1.4 version as well? With that version a checked out repository needs less space.

There we are: subversion 1.4.4 on Elsix: http://www.elsix.org/index.php?w=project&p=subversion It was nasty to build with the default zaurus toolchain. You'll need the following to try for yourself: http://subversion.tigris.org/downloads/sub...n-1.4.4.tar.bz2 http://subversion.tigris.org/downloads/sub...s-1.4.4.tar.bz2 http://ssel.vub.ac.be/Members/DennisWagela...g-1.4.4.tar.bz2 The last file contains some scripts and instructions to make the build work... |
