getting svn to work in etch...
Dear Debianists,
I am trying to compile a program called ascend that lives in
sourceforge.net.
There is a svn repository for it.....
One of the developers told me that if I type
svn co https://pse.cheme.cmu.edu/svn/ascend/code/branches/extfn .
at the terminal then I should be able to fetch the files I need to do the
compilation.
I tried it but I got
svn: command not found at the terminal prompt.
Maybe svn is not installed in a standard desktop install of etch (AMD64)...
Or maybe it lives somewhere like /sbin where the whereis command can't see
it.
I looked in Synaptic and there are no svn packages that have been
installed.... But I am not sure which one I should install to do this.
Suggestions welcome.
I am going to try and compile the program to run under AMD64. If it works
then I would be interested to figure out how to make a Debian package out of
it.
A pointer to a documentation guide to this would be helpful.
Regards,
Michael Fothergill
