Subversive Subversion
lazarus / 1-Linux

Hi,

I've got Lazarus going very nicely on my Gentoo machine using the
stable e-build at 9.22. (USE="source" emerge lazarus)

I've tried to use the Daily Snapshots which don't compile at all and I
sort of get sucked into dependency Hell populated by glib and pixbuf
incompatabilities.

I was wondering if I could set up Subversion to compare my working
installation and upgrade it where necessary.

Currently it faiils, presumably because svn looks at my lazarus
directory (in /usr/share/lazarus) and decides that there are too many
inconsistencies.

Is it possible to get subversion to regard the installation directory
as a svn directory?

Or am I barking completely up the wrong tree....
