Install Error: Missing Dependency: perl(URI) >= 1.17 is needed by package subversion

by Gabi Solomon

Today i finally decided to go ahead with installing subversion, after a bit of reading i opened a ssh session and input :

[root@servername ~]# yum install subversion

But to my surprise i got an error :(

Error: Missing Dependency: perl(URI) >= 1.17 is needed by package subversion

After a bit of googling i managed to find a solution on a forum and i thought to post it here, maybe other will find it faster :D

First we need to download the perl(URI) with version greater than 1.17 using the following command.

wget http://yum.trixbox.org/centos/5/RPMS/perl-URI-1.35-3.noarch.rpm

Then to install the perl package :

rpm -i perl-URI-1.35-3.noarch.rpm

That is it, you can now install and configure subversion as normal.

Cheers.
