The JavaSVN bundled with Subclipse 1.1.8 seems to be a 1.4 Subversion client. The current command line client is 1.3.

After I used Subclipse to update my working copies, I can no longer use the command line client (the following message is displayed):

   svn: This client is too old to work with working copy '.'; please get a newer Subversion client

More information about the 1.3-1.4 incompatibility: http://wiki.umd.edu/wiki/display/~cdoyle/Subversion+1.4+Incompatibilities

Therefore JavaSVN is at the moment no real alternative to JavaHL. When a working patch already exists, what can you do to get the corrected packages into the ubuntu repositories as quickly as possible?
