[Bug 949143] Re: [needs-packaging] Provide Subversion 1.7.x in the Ubuntu Software Repo

[Chelmite]

Subversion was changed to version 1.7 in Ubuntu 11.10 a few months ago.
To use 1.7, I had to convert all my subversion-controlled directories from the pre-1.7 format to the 1.7 format.

Now that I've upgraded to Ubuntu 12.04, subversion 1.6 DOES NOT WORK on
1.7-formatted subversion directories.

I have real work to do that needs subversion 1.7 asap.

Title:
  [needs-packaging] Provide Subversion 1.7.x in the Ubuntu Software Repo

Status in “subversion” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “subversion” package in Debian:
  New

Bug description:
  Current in the Ubuntu repos only Subversion 1.6.12 is provided. And as far as I can see this version is planned for 12.04, too. 
  This version is outdated and only partially supported by the Apache team (see http://subversion.apache.org/docs/release-notes/). Further it should be noted that this version has new features, which make the life a bit easier with svn. 

  The source is available @ http://subversion.apache.org/download/

  So please package and provide subversion in version 1.7.x in the
  upcoming Ubuntu 12.04.
