Wow, I just got back from lunch to three replies and a patch! I'll try to keep up here...

Yes I have Perl SVN:: installed, because I started off trying git-svnimport. (Most of my attempts there resulted in lots of commits of the same empty tree, until someone else on this list mentioned that "trunk/projectname" should be removed from the url. Then it started working, but it seems to be a large repo and was taking forever, so I tried git-svn.) I didn't realise git-svn didn't need the Perl stuff.

$ rpm -qa | grep subversion subversion-1.2.1-0.1.1.fc3.rf subversion-perl-1.2.1-0.1.1.fc3.rf
