Installing JavaHL 1.6 on CentOS

I'm looking to install the 1.6 version of JavaHL on CentOS, which proves to be more tricky then expected.

Has someone succeed doing so and can point a repo for this?

Thanks in advance.

On my CentOS 5 machine, the following worked like a charm:

yum install subversion-javahl

It pulled the rpm from the dries repo. If you don't have yum configured to pull from dries: http://dries.ulyssis.org/rpm/clientconfig.html

Remember, as has been said by others here, that JavaHL is pretty version-sensitive - I'm running subclipse 1.6 / subversion 1.6, so I installed JavaHL 1.6. Make sure you're installing the right version.
