subversion 1.6.9 on Mac OS X

Overview
This installer contains a universal (ppc, ppc64, i386 and x86_64) build of Subversion 1.6.9 for OS X Leopard (10.5).  This is a complete binary distribution of Subversion including the following:

* The Subversion client
* Both Subversion servers (Apache modules and svnserve with SASL support)
* Both Subversion backend datastores (Berkeley DB and FSFS)
* All Subversion language bindings maintained by the Subversion team (Java, Perl, Python and Ruby)

As part of this installation, any Subversion installation found at /opt/subversion will be backed up to the location documented in the Important Locations section.

Post-Installation Notes
Once installed, you will need to prepend /opt/subversion/bin to your PATH environment variable.  This can be done a multitude of ways but an easy one is to add the following to the end of ~/.profile:

export PATH=/opt/subversion/bin:$PATH

If you plan on running an Apache-based Subversion server, you will also need to prepend the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH variable in /usr/sbin/envvars with /opt/subversion/lib so that the Subversion libraries shipped with this binary are used instead of those supplied by the operating system.  Here is an example snippet of what /usr/sbin/envvars might look like after making these changes:

...
DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH="/opt/subversion/lib:/usr/lib:$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH"
...

To uninstall the Subversion 1.6.9 Universal binary, just remove the /opt/subversion directory and remove the /Library/Receipts/Subversion-1.6.9.pkg directory.
