Issue
Evidently, getting subversion would be a piece of cake, if only yum weren't broken. Moreover, just about everywhere I search for info on installing subversion takes it for granted that yum is available for the task.
The story on yum is that, before I knew better, I upgraded python to 2.7 and am now getting the infamous "...No module named yum..." message in response to the yum command.
Of course, I'd like to have yum working; however, my immediate need is to get a subversion client going. How do I do this?
Thanks!
Solution
If yum is broken, you can still download the rpms from the repository mirrors manually and use the rpm
command to install them.
You might have to have a few attempts with the raw rpm command to find out (and satisfy) all the svn package dependencies, but it's better than nothing at all.
