I understand your policies, but the truth is that Subversive uses modified
version of SVNKit. However, what can we do to help you to ship Subversive
with Fedora?

I don't know it, I meant that modified SVNKit is used by users on Linux
systems, as we got reports from them, but of course, this is another case
than shipping.

Fedora tries very hard only to ship one version of a library and goes quite
some extra miles to unbundle libraries. This is done mostly for
security/maintenance reasons.
Adding a second subversive goes (very likely) against Fedora's policies.
Btw: Do other linux distributions ship the modified svnkit?
