When attempting to run tracd I'm getting the following error:

TracError: /home/aftervibe/svn2/testrep does not appear to be a
Subversion repository.

The repository "testrep" was created using svnadmin, the directory
contents are correct, and the user:group is the same as the one I run
tracd with, and I've even tried setting all permissions to 777 on the
repository.

The strange thing is that when I copied the code that throws that
error into a seperate python test script with all the necessary
imports, it works fine. And just to be sure, I gave it an invalid
location and it threw that same error.

For some reason it seems that 'repos.svn_repos_find_root_path()' is
doing something wrong, but only when it is run from tracd.
