Description Tomas Winkler 2007-03-15 14:36:11 UTC
Description of problem:
Seg fault on svn propget using svn_load_dirs.pl. when uploading Linux kernel
sources. 
It only fails on bulk checkins such as using svn_load_dirs.pl 
It used to work before but after it has stopped. I'm not sure if some of the
updates has broken the functionality.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

>rpm -qi subversion

I've tried to compile 1.4.3 Subversion but it always fails in switch_test.py
unit testing while compiling.

Comment 1 Joe Orton 2007-04-02 12:39:38 UTC
There are 1.4.3 packages in updates-testing, is this reproducible there?

# yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update subversion
