Subversion has been working before. The problem is that the new swig
upload removed the libswig1.3.22 form the archive (we remove imidiatly
because our scripts are simpler) which broke subversion.

Looking at the subversion QA page I see:

[2005-02-21] Accepted 1.1.3-2 in unstable (low) (David Kimdon)

which is the version that closes the swig bug. It missed the dinstall
run yesterday but should be there tonight and build shortly
afterwards.


If you can't wait use

deb http://debian-amd64.alioth.debian.org/debian-pure64 testing main contrib non-free

which still has the lib.
