Description Crutcher Dunnavant 2003-05-05 20:07:19 UTC
Description of problem:

svn-config is generated at config time, and ends up containing the following lines:
LIBS="$(abs_builddir)/neon/src/libneon.la  -lz -lxml2 -lz -lm 
-L/usr/src/redhat/BUILD/subversion-r4503/apr-util -laprutil-0 -lgdbm -ldb-4.0
-lexpat  -L/usr/src/redhat/BUILD/subversion-r4503/apr -lapr-0 -lm -lcrypt -lnsl
 -ldl -ldb "
INCLUDES="-I$(abs_srcdir)/neon/src  
-I/usr/src/redhat/BUILD/subversion-r4503/apr/include  
-I/usr/src/redhat/BUILD/subversion-r4503/apr-util/include "

The $(abs_builddir) and $(abs_srcdir) lines don't work outside of the build
envirnoment, and as such other programs cannot use svn-config to get all the
libs they need.

Comment 1 Joe Orton 2003-05-18 19:39:38 UTC
Thanks for the report.  I don't think svn-config is actually finished yet, so it
might be wise not to package it.

Are any applications actually using this script?
