kdevelop with svn

I would like to start using kdevelop with svn, but this seems to be a problem.
When I create my repository kdevelop complains that it can't use the kio-slave 'https+svn'

kdevelop: ERROR: : couldn't create slave : Unable to create io-slave:
klauncher said: Unknown protocol 'svn+https'.

I tracked down this problem that the following file is missing: /opt/kde/lib/kde3/kio_svn.so
After some more searching it seems that kdesdk should provide this file, which it doesn't. So I'd try compiling kdesdk with svn support, but this crashes here: (I added --with-subversion switch)

checking for APR... ./configure: line 34457: apr-config: command not found
./configure: line 34457: /usr/local/apr/bin/apr-config: No such file or directory

configure: error: --with-subversion was given, but test for subversion failed
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.
==> ERROR: Build Failed.  Aborting...

svn-config seems do be deprecated, but afaik apr-config should replace the use of svn-config. But I can't find any package that provides apr-config.

Can anyone help me on svn support in kdevelop?

Re: kdevelop with svn

apr provides apr-1-config. and apr-utils provides apu-1-config Maybe you'll need to sed/patch it.
It also looks in /usr/local for apr stuff. Maybe there's an option to tell it the correct path.

Re: kdevelop with svn

thanks snowman, that was the solution for my problem.
This also implies the PKGBUILD for kdesdk contains some errors, I'll file a bugreport
