Thanks but I don't quite understand why a firewall has
anything to do  
with that error message.  If you simply type
"svn", you are not  
accessing any remote servers.

    The correct answer which I figured out after debugging is:

chcon -t texrel_shlib_t /usr/local/lib/libsvn_ra_dav-1.so

The SVN FAQ needs to be updated with this.  The FAQ does mention SELinux but only for the repository and not for any shared libraries.

<blockquote>
Note for SELinux / Fedora Core 3+ / Red Hat Enterprise users:

In addition to regular Unix permissions, under SELinux every file, directory, process, etc. has a 'security context'. When a process attempts to access a file, besides checking the Unix permissions the system also checks to see if the security context of the process is compatible with the security context of the file.

Fedora Core 3, among other systems, comes with SELinux installed by default, configured so that Apache runs in a fairly restricted security context. To run Subversion under Apache, you have to set the security context of the repository to allow Apache access (or turn off the restrictions on Apache, if you think all this is overkill). The chcon command is used to set the security context of files (similarly to how the chmod sets the traditional Unix permissions). For example, one user had to issue this command

   $ chcon -R -h -t httpd_sys_content_t PATH_TO_REPOSITORY

to set the security context to be able to successfully access the repository.
