It seems the latest subversion RPMS, released last night, are broken.
The i386 binary of 1.0.4-1 can't find libcom_err.so.3, which used to be packaged in krb5-libs under Red Hat Linux 9. libcom_err.so.2 is on the system as part of e2fsprogs.
Rebuilding the SRPM, I get a missing libdb-4.0.la - but FC2 is on db4-4.2. End of the build process is:
cd subversion/libsvn_subr && /bin/sh /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/subversion-1.0.4/libtool --silent --mode=link gcc -O2 -g -pipe -march=i386 -mcpu=i686 -pthread -DNEON_ZLIB -DNEON_SSL -pie -rpath /usr/lib -o libsvn_subr-1.la auth.lo cmdline.lo config.lo config_auth.lo config_file.lo config_win.lo date.lo error.lo hash.lo io.lo md5.lo opt.lo path.lo pool.lo quoprint.lo sorts.lo stream.lo subst.lo svn_base64.lo svn_string.lo target.lo time.lo utf.lo utf_validate.lo validate.lo xml.lo /usr/lib/libaprutil-0.la /usr/lib/libapr-0.la
