 # Build in OpenSolaris?
 
-I've learned I'm not yet clever enough to get IkiWiki to build in OpenSolaris (as running on a [Joyent Accelerator][ja]). Anyone figured this out already?
+Moved to [[bugs/build_in_opensolaris]] --[[Joey]]
+
+----
 
-I think problem lies mostly, if not entirely, in getting ikiwiki.cgi.c to compile in an OpenSolaris context (this is ikiwiki-2.2):
+# Various ways to use Subversion with ikiwiki
 
-> <code>$ ikiwiki --setup ~/etc/ikiwiki/ikiwiki-edit.setup  
-> [...]  
-> Error: failed to compile /home/username/domains/domain.tld/cgi-bin/ikiwiki.cgi.c at /opt/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/IkiWiki.pm line 104.
-BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at (eval 3) line 145.</code>
+I'm playing around with various ways that I can use subversion with ikiwiki.
 
-More specifically, 
+* Is it possible to have ikiwiki point to a subversion repository which is on a different server?  The basic checkin/checkout functionality seems to work but there doesn't seem to be any way to make the post-commit hook work for a non-local server?
 
-> <code>$ /usr/sfw/bin/gcc ikiwiki.cgi.c  
-> Undefined               first referenced  
-> symbol                     in file  
-> asprintf                   /var/tmp//cczPaG7R.o  
-> ld: fatal: Symbol referencing errors. No output written to a.out  
-> collect2: ld returned 1 exit status</code>

-[ja]: <http://www.joyent.com/accelerator/technical-specifications/>
+* Is it possible / sensible to have ikiwiki share a subversion repository with other data (either completely unrelated files or another ikiwiki instance)?  This works in part but again the post-commit hook seems problematic.
 
-Thanks, Joey et al., for a really cool tool.
