svnserve ignores per repo svnserve.conf?

Hi

Today I was configuring my svnserve on my raspberry pi. It appears that conf/svnserve.conf per repo are ignored although the manual says otherwise. I wonder if this is a bug from the build of the package or an error within the application. I've never before tried to run and maintain my own subversion server so I need your experience as a reference.



The test is easy:
1. Don't provide the '--config-file' directive, restart and try an svn co. No password challenge. (I assume all may read/write by default)
2. Insert the directive (as given below), restart, try svn co. Now I'm asked for a password. When answering with the correct credentials svn succeeds with a proper checkout. (I therefore assume my config is valid and something else should be the reason for ignoring my config in the first place)



Some details of my setup:

# cat /etc/conf.d/svnserve
SVNSERVE_ARGS="-T -r /repositories --config-file /repositories/conf/svnserve.conf"
### END OF svnserve ###

# cat svnserve.conf
[general]
realm           = repository.invalid

anon-access     = none
auth-access     = write

[sasl]
use-sasl        = true
min-encryption  = 1
max-encryption  = 256
### END OF svnserve.conf ###
