"Creating the repository" does not seem necessary - many people have
more than one repository, and 'svnadmin create /pathname' is not
difficult.  But I _have_ been planning to set up svnserve in the
packaging - just haven't had time to add that.  It is the next major
item on my subversion packaging todo list.

Yes, that has been my plan.

Thanks,
Peter
