It looks like it's not detecting your sqlite. Try brew reinstall sqlite --universal first, then retry building svn.

[DKroot]

Yeah, I did something along this lines. sqllite complains that it is already in OS X and suggest to add compilation flags, but I'm not sure where to add flags:

~> brew reinstall sqlite --universal
==> Reinstalling sqlite with --universal
==> Downloading http://sqlite.org/2014/sqlite-autoconf-3080403.tar.gz
Already downloaded: /Library/Caches/Homebrew/sqlite-3.8.4.3.tar.gz
==> ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/Cellar/sqlite/3.8.4.3 --enable-dynamic-extensions
==> make install
==> Caveats
This formula is keg-only, so it was not symlinked into /usr/local.

Mac OS X already provides this software and installing another version in
parallel can cause all kinds of trouble.

OS X provides an older sqlite3.

Generally there are no consequences of this for you. If you build your
own software and it requires this formula, you'll need to add to your
build variables:

LDFLAGS:  -L/usr/local/opt/sqlite/lib
CPPFLAGS: -I/usr/local/opt/sqlite/include

Yeah, I did something along this lines. sqllite complains that it is already in OS X and suggest to add compilation flags, but I'm not sure where to add flags:

It's not complaining, this is just boilerplate messaging explaining why sqlite is not linked into the prefix by default. The installation of sqlite succeeded.

[DKroot]

Well, if it succeeded, why did subversion fail to build with:

configure: error: Subversion requires SQLite

[jacknagel]

I don't know. I'm just pointing out that there was no error during the sqlite install.

[mistydemeo]

Can you gist the contents of the config.log, please?

[DKroot]

Done. Updated the Gist with subversion / config.log.

[adamv]

Can we confirm that your sqlite is built with --universal?

[DKroot]

adamv,

Yes, the listing I provided above was from >brew reinstall sqlite --universal

I know this thread has been dead for a while, but I hope that posting mine resolution of the problem here might help someone else - I was simply missing the mavericks command line tools.
These you can get either by typing xcode-select --install in a terminal prompt of your choice, or by visiting https://developer.apple.com/downloads/index.action and searching for "command line tools" and selecting the most recent version for mavericks.
Cheers.

[DKroot]

nortimer,

thanks for a suggestion. I had installed Command Line Tools manually, but it did not make any difference for my problem.

[jacknagel]

I would again try:

$ brew update
$ brew rm sqlite
$ brew install subversion --universal --java

If that fails, then I would like to see gists for both sqlite and subversion, i.e. brew gist-logs sqlite and brew gist-logs subversion.

[jacknagel]

And also file /usr/local/opt/sqlite/lib/libsqlite3.0.dylib

[DKroot]

Trying... It died on the entirely different issue this time:

==> ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/Cellar/subversion/1.8.10_1 --with-apr=/opt/local/bin --with-zlib=/usr --with-sqlite=/usr/lo
An appropriate version of serf could not be found, so libsvn_ra_serf
will not be built.  If you want to build libsvn_ra_serf, please
install serf 1.2.1 or newer.

configure: error: Serf was explicitly enabled but an appropriate version was not found.

READ THIS: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/wiki/troubleshooting`

Is there a formula for serf? Any advice?

[jacknagel]

serf is vendored in the subversion formula. Please post brew gist-logs subversion.

[DKroot]

Sure, here they are: https://gist.github.com/8de5264bedff8f081e9e

[jacknagel]

A lot of MacPorts flags are being used due to presence of /opt/local/bin/apr-1-config. Is there a serf installed there?
