with subversion-1.0.1, swig-1.3.21 and viewcvs-0.9.2_p20030430 i get the following error when calling viewcvs from a browser: -------------- snip -------------- Traceback (most recent call last): File "/var/www/localhost/viewcvs/lib/viewcvs.py", line 3044, in main run_viewcvs(server) File "/var/www/localhost/viewcvs/lib/viewcvs.py", line 2931, in run_viewcvs request = Request(server) File "/var/www/localhost/viewcvs/lib/viewcvs.py", line 251, in __init__ import vclib.svn File "/var/www/localhost/viewcvs/lib/vclib/svn/__init__.py", line 26, in ? from svn import fs, repos, util File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/svn/fs.py", line 27, in ? import libsvn.fs File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/libsvn/fs.py", line 4, in ? import _fs ImportError: /usr/lib/libsvn_swig_py-1.so.0: undefined symbol: SWIG_TypeQuery -------------- snip -------------- The error is related to the swig version.

what about 1.0.2? The bug log shows that the last commit was in January, and 1.0.1 and 1.0.2 have come out since then...
sorry - i missed that update - testing right now - i'll let you know how if it works.
nope - same error... working: svn-1.0.1 and 1.0.2 with swig-1.3.19 not working: svn-1.0.1 and 1.0.2 with swig-1.3.21 i didnt test it with swig-1.3.20. The error is identical to the previous one including the line-numbers.
It works for me with swig-1.3.21 and subversion-1.0.2 and viewcvs. swig-1.3.20 is broken as it does not compile certain key libraries.
You got me, Paul - i can confirm that subversion-1.0.2 works with swig-1.3.21. But i needed to recompile subversion to get it to work. Without reemerging subversion i get exactly the same error. revdep-rebuild doesnt seem to catch this dependency - it came up blank after the swig upgrade. Oh and as you said, swig-1.3.20 is broken...
Actually, subversion 1.0.2 fails to compile on my box with swig 1.3.21.

It seems that swig is not built properly. Has it been built with perl support? Alternatively you might try to merge subversion without perl support. USE="-perl" emerge subversion
Just as a 'me too' I can't get subversion-1.0.4-r1 to build with swig-1.3.21 either. Same errors with the perl library building as Sean was getting. And swig on my machine is compiled with perl support. I'm going to try emerging subversion without perl support now.
I think I figure out what is happening. The problem is with swig that does not honor python use flag unless the guile use flag is set.
what about recent subversion-1.1.1-r3
seems to work for me :)
Ok Guys. The solution is here http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-306555-highlight-limits+amd64.html (about the 6th comment) You need to edit /usr/include/limits.h This is also a duplicate of http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=80177
thats not an issue anymore since we are at version 1.1.3 meanwhile.
