Topic: Subversion and bugzilla contribs update ?

[Amir Inbar]

I am looking for a way to upgrade bugzilla and subversion to newer versions.
Using SME 7.5.1 with svn 1.4.6 and bugzilla 3.2.5 contribs installed with the instructions on wiki pages.

New features like merge are very needed on the server.

I have read the information at tigris.org and could not find a way (i don't have the skills ?) to do the upgrade for subversion.

If you'll use this contrib

http://wiki.contribs.org/Subversion

you'll have version 1.6.15 (I've checked several minutes ago)

to verify version issue this command

Code: [Select]

yum info --enablerepo=smecontribs *subversion
to verify changes against latest version go to

http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/subversion/tags/1.6.16/CHANGES

of corse you can use subverion page to get support

http://subversion.apache.org/

I have just double-checked with a different server at somewhere else that has no installation of subversion yet and the result is the same :

Code: [Select]

yum info --enablerepo=smecontribs *subversionGives me different results on SME 7 and SME 8 (see below).

Additionally, the release notes for subversion 1.6 mention that there is a requirement for sqlite "better than 3.4.0", but both of my SME servers (v7.5.1 and v8b6) report sqlite v3.3.6; I don't know if this will cause problems or not.

mmccarn, i am using SME 7.5.1 since 8.6 Beta is not recommended to production.

I don't care for 1.6, even an upgrade to 1.5.1 will be good enough since it will enable merge.

Dose anybody know how to upgrade the subversion itself ?
The contrib pages states that smeserver-subversion will work with future releases of subversion (higher than 1.4.6) and that it was intentionally built separately so that smeserver-subversion wouldn't have to be upgraded every time subversion gets new version.

The problem when trying to do yum localinstall after downloading the 1.5.1 rpm is that it complains about dependencies needed by 1.4.6 :

Code: [Select]

yum localinstall subversion-1.5.1-1.i386.rpm                                                              Loading "fastestmirror" plugin

I am the author of the smeserver-subversion contrib, this contrib only integrates subversion with SME Server, subversion is taken from the repositories where SME Server is taking it's packages from, including upstream (CentOS) repositories.

AFAIK 1.4.6 is the last release able to run on and released for SME Server 7.x (and CentOS 4.x) because of dependencies for higher versions not being available for SME Server 7.x (and CentOS 4.x).

For SME Server 8.x you are able to use a more recent version, where 1.6.11 is the latest available AFAICT.

Thank you Cactus for clarifying the issue !
