How to install mod_dav_svn on Centos 5.5

Question

Hi,

I'm trying to install mod_dav_svn on my server (Centos 5.5, Apache Apache 2.2.11, DirectAdmin 1.35.1 ) but no luck. Maybe anyone can help me with this.

I'm using this tut: http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Subversion#head-ae2d6fa671ad7ebd5d7835c6edbcd15dd2d73c4d

So, I'm trying in console:

# yum install mod_dav_svn subversion
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
 * addons: centos.bst.lt
 * base: centos.bst.lt
 * extras: centos.bst.lt
 * updates: centos.bst.lt
Excluding Packages in global exclude list
Finished
Setting up Install Process
No package mod_dav_svn available.
Package subversion-1.4.2-4.el5_3.1.i386 already installed and latest version
Nothing to do

Maybe anyone can help me with this. I don't get it why can't find mod_dav_svn.

Also I tried:

#yum search mod_dav_svn
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
 * addons: centos.bst.lt
 * base: centos.bst.lt
 * extras: centos.bst.lt
 * updates: centos.bst.lt
Excluding Packages in global exclude list
Finished
Warning: No matches found for: mod_dav_svn
No Matches found

Nothing...

When directadmin was installed, your apache was built from source and the exclusions were put in yum.config so that yum updates do not break your apache. if you want to install mod_dav_svn, use the direct admin custom build script.
