Thanks Rob,
Is this a fault in the svn update process?
Usually, no, it's rather that if you build in a directory that you've checked out and then run svn update, not everything gets cleaned up properly the next time you build. I find it's faster to build in a tmpfs file system anyway, e.g., mkdir /tmp/fs && sudo mount -t tmpfs tmpfs /tmpfs && svn export . /tmp/fs then go into /tmp/fs and run the compilation process, or the package building command, or whatever you need. This way, my original svn tree is never altered and it will always update cleanly.
