Hello Villani,

That sounds like you are using a self-compiled version of svn, which
explains the issues.

You can make GetComponents use the one in /usr/bin/svn
(there will be such a one if you executed the apt-get command
that Steve and I asked you to run) by running it like so:

PATH=/usr/bin:$PATH ./GetComponents --update ./einsteintoolkit.th

which makes GetComponents use the copy in /usr/bin before trying to use
the copy of svn in /usr/local/bin.

You may also want to consider removing the copy of svn
in /usr/bin/local as without https support it is not going to be very
useful. Exactly how to remove it I cannot tell you since that depends
largely on how you installed it in the first place.

Yours,
Roland
