I'm trying to install SVN on a CentOS virtual machine.

I used the command that the CentOS wiki tells: http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Subversion

yum install mod_dav_svn subversion

It gives me a few errors:

--> Finished Dependency Resolution
mod_dav_svn-1.4.2-4.el5_3.1.i386 from base has depsolving problems
  --> Missing Dependency: httpd-mmn = 20051115 is needed by package mod_dav_svn-1.4.2-4.el5_3.1.i386 (base)
subversion-1.4.2-4.el5_3.1.i386 from base has depsolving problems
  --> Missing Dependency: perl(URI) >= 1.17 is needed by package subversion-1.4.2-4.el5_3.1.i386 (base)
Error: Missing Dependency: perl(URI) >= 1.17 is needed by package subversion-1.4.2-4.el5_3.1.i386 (base)
Error: Missing Dependency: httpd-mmn = 20051115 is needed by package mod_dav_svn-1.4.2-4.el5_3.1.i386 (base)

The thing is that I have Perl 5.8 installed:

root@server [~]# rpm -q perl perl-5.8.8-32.el5_5.2

I also don't know why it tells httpd-mmn isn't installed. I have apache installed for sure. From what I read here, it seems I would need to recompile apache.

Any ideas?

Update: I also tried to install subversion via WHM (11.28.35) and it gives me the same error. By the way, WHM it says: CENTOS 5.5 i686 virtuozzo on server
