well, I'm sure that's something with svn import. Please note that -m
only takes one argument. Thus what you gave above would end up with
telling svn to "trunk" as command with "directory import
/tmp/tmp.pIvSuL9984/trunk ..." as parameters.

Therefore it's just way easier to go like this:
svn mkdir asterisk-prompt-fr-proformatique
svn mkdir asterisk-prompt-fr-proformatique/trunk
cd asterisk-prompt-fr-proformatique/trunk
(...insert all the files...)
svn add *
cd ../..
svn ci

That'll just do the same trick (optionally you can as well use svn add
with existing structure rather than svn mkdir).

Hth. If there's more problems, please let me know. ;)

will take a look. Any hints on where this option is?
