+== Build from SVN on Debian (and maybe others) ==
+
+Trying to build packages from SVN may currently have some issues. The following tries to address the ones I experience on Debian. They may be applicable to other environments as well.
+
+=== cat: <some path>mondo/VERSION: No such file or directory ===
+(followed by some more errors)
+
+This is because tools/svn-env makes assumptions about the user's directory layout which are not necessily true. To overcome this, change tools/svn-env to:
+{{{
+#!/bin/bash
+#
+# Creates common environment for SVN repository
+#
+# $Id: svn-env 553 2006-05-17 22:40:32Z bcornec $
+#
+
+export VER="`cat ${TOOLHOME}/../mondo/VERSION`"
+export SVNBRANCH="`dirname ${TOOLHOME}`"
+
+# To be safe for SVN commands
+export REVISION=`(cd $TOOLHOME/.. ; svnversion .)`
+export TAG=`cat ${TOOLHOME}/TAG`
+}}}
+
