[CMake] Resolution of dependencies for Subversion

Yes. - The configuration script is a part of the package "cmake 2.6.4-29.2" from the openSUSE build service.

Does a configuration script exist which will define all required variables and corresponding data structures for the build process?

I do not want to develop an add-on. But I would like to create a little program for my own purposes that is based on the application programming interface like it is described in the document "Using the APIs - Chapter 8. Developer Information".
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.1/ch08s02.html

Would you like to recommend any ways to resolve the additional software dependencies for the Apache Portable Runtime library?
FIND_PACKAGE(APR REQUIRED)
FIND_PACKAGE(APRUtil 1.3 REQUIRED)

How are the chances that another improved script will be added to the available modules?

Its header contains the comment "Extract information from a subversion working copy". Should the functionality be extended so that variables will also be defined with the suffix "_INCLUDES" and "_LIBS" for compiling and linking like they are provided by other scripts?
