Sébastien, thanks for the report.  Unfortunately (for you), ViewVC is
agnostic about the Subversion repository format version.

If you are seeing this error, it is because your ViewVC installation is
referencing Subversion Python bindings modules linked to the Subversion 1.5
library versions.  This is not something ViewVC decides -- it simply asks
Python to load the 'svn' modules, and Python obliges the request with
whatever it finds.  In other words, you have a configuration problem on your
server caused by having outdated versions of the Subversion Python modules
installed.
