Note: New dependency on py3c when building SWIG

[Douglas R. Reno]

Note that python2 support will be removed at a later point release of subversion.

SWIG bindings for the languages we have available are definitely needed for packages such as nmap (for it's update script) and for Mercurial (which uses the python bindings).

We'll probably need to add py3c to the book if it's not in there already.

[thomas]

py3c required:

...
checking for py3c.h... no
configure: WARNING: py3c library not found; disabling python swig bindings
...

[thomas]

Add new Python3 module (to enable the swig in subversion)

​https://github.com/encukou/py3c/archive/v1.1/py3c-1.1.tar.gz

junit java archive (to run java tests in subversion):

​https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/junit/junit/4.13/junit-4.13.jar Place it somewhere on the system (e.g. /usr/local/java/lib/)

Add LANG= to the checks. At least the java test produces failures when language is non-englisch

LANG= make check-javahl

[thomas]

Fixed in r23213
