>Description:
With PREFIX=/usr and APACHE_APR unselected, the dependency devel/apr gets installed properly, but Subversion it's self refuses to install. Instead, it complains about devel/apr being not installed properly. Likely, the same problem appears with any PREFIX other than the default one.
Reason is, the variable APR_APU_DIR gets set to /usr/local/bin instead of /usr/bin in Makefile.common.
>How-To-Repeat:
cd /usr/ports/devel/apr && make deinstall
cd /usr/ports/devel/subversion && make PREFIX=/usr install
>Fix:
One possible fix is to replace all occurences of ${LOCALBASE} with ${PREFIX} in Makefile and Makefile.common. While I can think of situations where this isn't sufficient, this fix worked well for me.
