Hi, please forgive that trainwreck of a title.
I'm on FreeBSD 9.2-release with the latest pkgng.
When I attempt to install the subversion package, the following occurs:
[root at Chiyochan-FreeBSD /home/matt/btsync/LinuxConfigStuff]# pkg install subversion Updating repository catalogue
The following 9 packages will be installed:
Installing gdbm: 1.11
Installing db42: 4.2.52_5
Installing sqlite3: 3.8.2
Installing neon29: 0.29.6_4
Installing apr: 1.4.8.1.5.3
Installing subversion: 1.6.23_2
Installing subversion: 1.7.14
Installing serf: 1.3.2_1
Installing subversion: 1.8.5
The installation will require 53 MB more space
0 B to be downloaded
Proceed with installing packages [y/N]:
Of course, if I say yes, the packages run into conflicts with each other and fail to install. Specifying the latest version of subversion works around this problem. I can only speculate, but if this problem is not specific to my box, my guess would be that there's some sort of dependency tangle.
Thanks,
Matt
(How many versions could a subversion version if the subversion version was virgin?)
