Installing a subversion client on SLE 10

I just noticed that SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 does not have Subversion in the core repository. Apparently, one has to download a 2.9 GB “developer kit” to get the subversion client RPM.

I did some searching on the internet, and I discovered the RPMs at the following location. I am using x86_64 of SLE 10. You can check your version with the following command: lsb_release -d

wget http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/tools:/scm:/svn/SLE_10/x86_64/neon-0.26.1-10.1.x86_64.rpm
wget http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/tools:/scm:/svn/SLE_10/x86_64/subversion-1.6.16-27.1.x86_64.rpm

Neon is a dependency for the subversion client.
