There are several other aspects of websvn's configuration that are out of date:
The websvn/webservers step still looks for apache, apache-ssl, and apache-perl, instead of just using apache2.
There are a few references to php4, but Ubuntu 14.04 uses PHP 5.
websvn/permissions gives Berkeley DB-specific instructions (without even specifying that they only apply to Berkeley DB), but "almost everyone" (according to the Subversion Book) uses the default fsfs.
