SVN revisions are only ever recommended for developers. :)
That being said, I just checked out and compiled this morning (rev
16340) and it went smoothly for me. I'm using FC8. I was setting up a
new dev machine so I went from no install to complete dev install
working in about 2 hours. If you're going to run an unreleased version
out of SVN, I highly recommend you checkout and compile yourself so
you don't have to wait for packages to update when something breaks
and quickly gets fixed.
Actually, I did have 1 weirdness this morning. It stuck my myth
libraries in /usr/local/usr/lib64 instead of where I told them to go
in /usr/lib64. I copied them over (instead of painstakingly symlinking
them like I should have) and it all worked just fine after that.
