Re: How to install Subversion 1.2.3-1?

I am trying to install Subversion 1.2.3-1 on my cygwin system. I am not having any success with setup.exe (I plan to post a separate email regarding setup.exe issues).

I tried downloading and extracting the following package:

http://mirror.calvin.edu/cygwin/release/subversion/subversion-1.2.3-1.tar.bz2


And this puts you in the "you're on your own" territory. This *can* work but only if you know what you're doing, which is why this list can't support
unscripted installs.



Only to get the following results (in short: it doesn't work):

mengland@matts-laptop 8:17am [...software-new/subversion] 8> svn --version
2 [main] ? 3652 cygheap_fixup_in_child: Couldn't reserve 9891792 bytes of
space for cygwin's heap (0x61810000 <0x870000>) in child, Win32 error 487

, m.RegionSize 0x3B0000, m.State 0x10000
mengland@matts-laptop 8:17am [...software-new/subversion] 9>


Can someone please help guide me out of the darkness to see the light?


Here's the light:

The very first message in the list has a nice synopsis of what you should do
to fix this:
