Bug Description
[FFe]
libapache2-svn was dropped in Debian to unblock the Apache 2.4 transition. This was an intentional regression.
Patches have been in Debian BTS for a while, and a DD has now uploaded a delayed NMU for it. (The package is now libapache2-
I'd like to cherry-pick this change for Saucy, but only if the NMU lands. The patch against the NMU notice in Debian BTS looks good. But since this involves a "new" binary package, I don't have visibility of the exact canonical patch yet. But I will make sure that what I cherry-pick only impacts the new binary package, and test it myself.
Impact: we will completely regress the Subversion Apache module if we do not fix this. Regression risk: as long as we're only impacting the new binary package, I don't see that we can make the situation worse. I will need to check carefully that this will only impact the new binary package.
[Original Description]
The package does not exist in saucy - and mod_dav_svn.so is not provided by any other package.

See http:// bugs.debian. org/cgi- bin/bugreport. cgi?bug= 712004 and http:// bugs.debian. org/cgi- bin/bugreport. cgi?bug= 666794. Debian intentionally removed libapache2-svn to unblock the transition to apache 2.4.
libapache2-svn has always been in universe in Ubuntu, so needs volunteers to help Debian fix this.
