+NOTES
+
+This is a port for the subversion revision control; if you have apache
+(version 2.0+) installed, you'll also get the apache modules to run a
+subversion server via apache/WebDAV.
+Else you'll still be able to create a server with the svnserve
+application. If you want absolutely no server parts, add
+"--without-berkeley-db" to the configure line
+
+If you're going to install apache later on, you'll need to recompile
+this package (solutions to this are already planned).
+
+If you want Python Bindings, install SWIG and comment out the few lines
+in the build() function
+
+PRE-INSTALL (SERVER)
+Make sure you install expat before you install apache; also, note that you'll
+get a footprint missmatch
+
+
+POST-INSTALL (SERVER)
+
+add something like this to your apache configuration:
+
+#LoadModule dav_module         lib/apache/mod_dav.so
+#LoadModule dav_svn_module     lib/apache/mod_dav_svn.so
+#<Location /svn/repos>
+#   DAV svn
+#   SVNPath /home/svnroot
+#
+#   # Limit write permission to list of valid users.
+#   <LimitExcept GET PROPFIND OPTIONS REPORT>
+#      # Require SSL connection for password protection.
+#      # SSLRequireSSL
+#
+#      AuthType Basic
+#      AuthName "Authorization Realm"
+#      AuthUserFile /absolute/path/to/passwdfile
+#      Require valid-user
+#   </LimitExcept>
+#</Location>
