Ok, whatever.  What about svn.eclass you mentioned, the entire contents of
the files/ dirs (digests, patches, etc.).

If there ever surfaces a way to install svn without jumping through hoops
please post on the mailing list.  Until then I'll crawl back into my hole
and work on my own stuff until Zynot is a little more together.  It wears
pretty thin to have to literally _fight_ about getting the tools we have
been told we need to develop on this distro into a format that is useable.
Momentum is now officially going backwards for me.

Sorry to sound negative, but there is not much positive in me today :/
