[Rivet] svn acces problem on laptop

[Lars Sonnenschein]

Hello Jon
I have on my laptop (preinstalled when I got it) SL4, as well as on my 
TH PC.
But I don't know for what reason the default installation does not 
include svn, httpd (needed for svn) and presumably many other things.

This is different on the lxplus cluster (where I don't have scratch disk 
space) and also on the (genser) lxbuild cluster, where I got scratch disk 
space. That is the place where I'm usually working.
