config.log

configure: checking neon library
checking neon library version... 0.26.3
You have neon version 0.26.3,
but Subversion needs neon 0.25.5.

An appropriate version of neon could not be found, so libsvn_ra_dav
will not be built.  If you want to build libsvn_ra_dav, please either
install neon 0.25.5 on this system

or

get neon 0.25.5 from:
    http://www.webdav.org/neon/neon-0.25.5.tar.gz
unpack the archive using tar/gunzip and rename the resulting
directory from ./neon-0.25.5/ to ./neon/


So this is a dependency versioning problem.

The actual error message is:

configure: checking neon library
checking neon library version... 0.26.3
You have neon version 0.26.3,
but Subversion needs neon 0.25.5.

An appropriate version of neon could not be found, so libsvn_ra_dav
will not be built.  If you want to build libsvn_ra_dav, please either
install neon 0.25.5 on this system

or

get neon 0.25.5 from:
    http://www.webdav.org/neon/neon-0.25.5.tar.gz
unpack the archive using tar/gunzip and rename the resulting
directory from ./neon-0.25.5/ to ./neon/

summary should be corrected to something similar to:

dev-util/subversion-1.4.6 should depend on missing net-misc/neon-0.26.5

(In reply to comment #2)

He he. Two people editing the same bug at the same time.
Wonder why bugzilla didn't give me a conflict message like it normally does...

hrm, same crap on every bump, though it works with neon 0.26.4 here .. !?

1.4.6 now depends on >=0.26.4

*** Bug 203649 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

there is no longer a compatible version of neon for 1.4.6.

sorry for the stupid noise, it does build with neon-0.26.4
