Description ldy 2006-03-01 05:39:38 UTC
COMMONDEPEND="apache2? ( ${APACHE2_DEPEND} )
    >=dev-libs/apr-util-0.9.5
    python? ( >=dev-lang/python-2.0 )

I think " >=dev-libs/apr-util-0.9.5 " should be deleted.

If I build subversion with "-apache2", apr-util should not be installed?

Make sense? 
thanks and I will emerge subversion after this bug is resolved:)

No, subversion needs it.

http://subversion.tigris.org/faq.html#portability

<snip>
Subversion is written in ANSI C and uses APR, the Apache Portable Runtime library, as a portability layer. The Subversion client will run anywhere APR runs, which is most places.
