I am trying to install subversion-1.4.0-sol10-sparc-local.gz on a
solaris 8 box.

I have also installed some of the packages that come with the above file
from www.sunfreeware.com such as neon etc ...

When I run ldd on svn, I get the following output:

        /usr/platform/SUNW,Sun-Fire-480R/lib/libc_psr.so.1

The problem lines are highlighted in red.

As suggested in www.sunfreeware.com/subversion.html, I ran the following
command:

ln -s /usr/lib/libm.so.1 /usr/lib/libm.so.2

As libm.so.2 doesn't exist on solaris 8.

However, when I try to run:

svn help

I get the following error:

ld.so.1: svn: fatal: libm.so.2: version `SUNW_1.2' not found (required
by file /usr/local/lib/libapr-0.so.0)
Killed

Do you know how I can resolve this?

I'm guessing that when libm.so.2 has been sorted out, it will complain
about libc.so.1 ...

Regards,

Dan.
