[ubuntu-uk] Ubuntu 8.10 - upgrade of svn to 1.5 or 1.6

[Werner F. Bruhin]

I just upgraded my Ubuntu machine which I mainly use for my svn 
repository.  Reason to upgrade was to get of svn 1.4.3 to something more 
recent, i.e. 1.5.x or even better 1.6.1.

Was searching around but have not found instructions on how to get svn 
upgraded - note that I am still pretty new to Linux/Ubuntu.

Only thing I found was "sudo apt-get upgrade subversion" but the post 
was not clear if the person actually got it fully working (i.e. he 
posted that command but then stated that he run into problems).

Appreciate any tips.

Thanks
Werner
