Hello, Everyone
When I first started using anonymous svn to get KDE from the trunk, I
had the same problem.  At first I just downloaded kde-common and linked
kde-common/admin to each KDE module.  That worked perfectly.
Now, this is the part I want everyone to hear: very shortly after
anonymous svn access started, and I had to go through what I went
through to compile KDE from SVN, svn started grabbing the "admin"
directory FROM kde-common and placing it in the root of each module -
automatically.
For example, if I run
svn co svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/KDE/kdeaddons

I then get the following, automatically, at the end:
Fetching external item into 'kdeaddons/admin'
A  kdeaddons/admin/config.pl
A  kdeaddons/admin/Doxyfile.am
A  kdeaddons/admin/mkinstalldirs
<-- snipped -->
A  kdeaddons/admin/configure.in.bot.end
A  kdeaddons/admin/install-sh
A  kdeaddons/admin/ylwrap
 U kdeaddons/admin
Checked out external at revision 413098.

Checked out revision 413097.



The original poster apparently wants the 3.4.0 branch:

If I run:
svn co svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/branches/KDE/3.4/kdeaddons

I automatically get the following:
Fetching external item into 'kdeaddons/admin'
A  kdeaddons/admin/config.pl
A  kdeaddons/admin/Doxyfile.am
A  kdeaddons/admin/mkinstalldirs
<-- snipped -->
A  kdeaddons/admin/configure.in.bot.end
A  kdeaddons/admin/install-sh
A  kdeaddons/admin/ylwrap
 U kdeaddons/admin
Checked out external at revision 413099.

Checked out revision 413097.

Further, if I run:
svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/tags/KDE/3.4.0/kdeaddons

I automatically get the following:
Fetching external item into 'kdeaddons/admin'
A  kdeaddons/admin/config.pl
A  kdeaddons/admin/Doxyfile.am
A  kdeaddons/admin/mkinstalldirs
<-- snipped -->
A  kdeaddons/admin/configure.in.bot.end
A  kdeaddons/admin/install-sh
A  kdeaddons/admin/ylwrap
 U kdeaddons/admin
Checked out external at revision 413099.

So I think what Thiago is trying to say is that unless a persons
installation is messed up, svn automatically grabs the admin directory
from the appropriate version of kde-common.  I know for a fact that
this is my experience, since I had to manually link kde-common/admin
when I first used anonymous svn for KDE, but a few days (if that) after
anonymous service started, svn started grabbing the admin directory for
me, with absolutely no change on my end of the command that I used to
grab a particular module.

So as far as I can see, the former issue of the missing "admin"
directory has been fixed since a few days after anonymous svn access was
first rolled out.  Again, all seems to work seamlessly now.

Have a Great Day :)
