fixing git-svn woes

27May09

At work we mostly use subversion for revision control, although some of the cooler kids are using git. I find subversion a bit of a pain compared to git, so I use the git-svn wrapper to get the best of both worlds whilst at work. Since upgrading to the latest Ubuntu however, I’ve noticed that a clash between gnutls and open-ssl causes git/subversion integration to fail. A fellow git-ite pointed out a quick fix however!

$ sudo rm /usr/lib/libneon-gnutls.so.27
$ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libneon.so.27 /usr/lib/libneon-gnutls.so.27

Works a treat.
