It's kind of hard to build the Subversion dependencies but the process
is documented in /nmap/nmap-update/README. There are also prebuilt
libraries under nmap-private-dev, which the build process will find
automatically if your nmap-private-dev checkout is next to your nmap
checkout.

The Debug and Release build configurations don't build nmap-update for
this reason, because as far as I know there isn't a way to test for the
presence of the libraries at build time.
