Subversion don't work with subclipse in eclipse

[Sven Sternberger]

Binary package hint: subversion

Hi!

Description: Ubuntu 9.10
Release: 9.10
subversion Installed: 1.6.5dfsg-1ubuntu1
eclipse3.5 tar ball
subclipse 1.6.5

Expected:
commit changes to svn repository via subclipse

Instead:
after update subclipse don't work in karmic. The problem
is the integration from svn wiht the gnome keyring
in the libraries:

libsvn_auth_gnome_keyring-1.so.1
libsvn_auth_gnome_keyring-1.so.1.0.0

Subclipse complains about a second thread accesing the repository.
After moving the files out of /usr/lib everything works as expected.

It also happens with eclipse version installed from repository (3.5.1+repack~1-0ubuntu1)

I've just found this:

http://subclipse.tigris.org/wiki/JavaHL#head-3a1d2d3c54791d2d751794e5d6645f1d77d95b32

So it seems to be a bug in subclipse itself, not in any Ubuntu package. A workaround is provided.

Correction: the bug is in Subversion, not in Subclipse, as stated here:

http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=3498

It seems that they are backporting the fix to the 1.6.x branch. Once this is done, I think that "libsvn" package should be repackaged and the update provided in the official Ubuntu repo.

The issue is under consideration for 1.6.7 upstream.

this should be added to the default /etc/eclipse.ini, right after -vmargs:

-Djava.library.path=/usr/lib/jni
