Hello,
I'm currently building RPMs for openSUSE 10.3 from SVN which works quite fine with one minor problem:
The GUI shows "svn 0" instead of the correct revision number - e.g. "svn 5087" - in the splash screen and in the Help -> About dialog.
.last_revision contains the correct revision number and the source archive from which I build my rpms contains the .svn directories as well.
So, please enlighten me what I am missing and where to configure / fill in the current revision number so it is correctly shown in the gui as well.
Thanks a lot in advance :)

Hi !
It looks like SVN is not installed or installed but not referenced in the PATH environment variable

Didn't dare to complain about this, but same is happening to me (on SuSE Linux 9.1!). It worked some time ago, but I can't remember when the cut between working and non-working was.
svn IS in installed and in my path as I regularly update the CB trunk from command line, BUT (idea/hint): my version is quite old, 1.0. Perhaps some command line parameters that are necessary for auto-versioning CB (splash, about, etc.) are simply not yet supported by my old version of svn.
Though openSuSE 10.3 should contain a sufficiently recent version of svn to establish auto-versioning. I will fetch the source and try to build a newer version of svn and see what happens.
Regards,
Oliver

@dje:
Good call, simply adding subversion to the build environment fixed it. Thank you very much!
@olipfei:
fwiw 10.3 has Subversion 1.4.4 and all I had to do was to install the client package in the build environment.
