Alien::SVN - A wrapper for installing the SVN Perl bindings
Alien::SVN is a wrapper to install the Perl bindings for subversion, also known as SVN::Core. If your module needs SVN::Core it can depend on Alien::SVN instead and then the CPAN shell can handle automatic installation. This is particularly useful for programs like SVK.
It comes with a copy of Subversion 1.7.17 which it will compile but only installs the Perl and Subversion libraries. The subversion binaries will not be installed.
Alien::SVN only wraps SVN::Core. We don't work on it.
Bug reports, problems and feedback about Alien::SVN and building SVN::Core should come to us at <bug-Alien-SVN> at <rt.cpan.org>. Or use the web interface at http://rt.cpan.org.
Issues and improvements to SVN::Core should go to the Subversion project directly. http://subversion.apache.org/issue-tracker.html
If you're not sure who to report to, you can always report to us and we'll point you in the right direction.
Report early, report often.
