Problem installing SVN on ubuntu

    Anyone know what I can do here? It's on an Amazon EC2 server, the guy who set it up is long gone.

    I try 
    sudo apt-get install subversion

    I get in response 
    You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 php5-odbc : Depends: unixodbc (>= 2.2.11)
             Depends: php5-common (= 5.3.2-1ubuntu4.19) but 5.3.10-1ubuntu3.7 is to be installed
 subversion : Depends: libsvn1 (= 1.6.17dfsg-3ubuntu3.3) but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
    I have tried apt-getting the missing dependencies as well as apt-get -f install and just keep getting more dependency errors to the point that I am going arond in a loop. (e.g. unixodbc depends on php5-common but that depends on unixodbc, etc.)

    Any suggestions?

    It's odd. What's the version? 12.04? Did you run a deb install beforehand or something? Have you funny respositories enabled? (have a look in /etc/apt/sources.list)

    Or try apt-get remove php5-odbc since it seems to be causing the problems...

    Looks like removing php5-odbc did the trick! However I'll need this back some time in the future so I might be back...
    ;)

    Thanks folks!

    Yeah - well if I was looking to reinstall it - I would first of all update. Then install the problem dependencies mentioned in your post above. And then install this library last.
