Kasun's Blog: Install w3af 1.0 in Fedora - Python-svn Dependancy Solving

Famous web application testing tool kit 'w3af' released a stable version on 25th May 2011. How ever when I run w3af-gui, it tells it needs 'python-svn' and suggest to run apt-get install python-svn.
In a fedora based system 'yum install python svn' will not work since package comes with a different package name. Therefore to install python svn, 'yum install pysvn' should be issued.
