Hi Michael,

Thanks for your quick reply. Indeed the fix was a sinch to do ... should 
have realized it sooner, but got tunnel vision instead trying to do it 
via the package-manager ;) ... which I'll have to do eventually :D.

The "svndbadmin -v rebuild <my_svn_repo_path>" works well for a while, 
but then it hits a snag. I'll start another thread for this.

Best - Bogdan.
