eclipse svn subclipse

I opened up my eclipse today, after previously having a perfectly working Subclipse, and it decided to spontaneously break itself.

svn: E155021: The path 'xxx' appears to be part of a Subversion 1.7 or greater working copy.  Please upgrade your Subversion client to use this working copy.

I tried completely uninstalling all of my subclipse packages in eclipse and then reinstalling them and it didn't fix it. Heres the installation link I used:

Subclipse 1.8.x Update Site - http://subclipse.tigris.org/update_1.8.x

What am I doing wrong?

I disconnected my project from the repo and deleted all my svn metadata, then reconnected it and it worked.
