I feel very strongly that when a user discovers package Foo and
decides to install it from the package system, they should get
the Foo that they read about, not an arbitrary subset the chosen
by the packager.  I have provided the subversion-base package as
a compromise between the desire you have expressed and mine.

This sounds like you're threatening to revamp the package if i
don't.
