Hm, don't think so.

You should not checkout the source (via svn) to build the Debian
package. The package as it's available in Debian does not require
subversion as build-dependency. Only if you do a manual checkout and
build of flashrom you need subversion, but that's unrelated to the
Debian package.
I just tested with the current version in unstable and it builds fine
without subversion installed:
$ dpkg --purge subversion
$ apt-get source flashrom
$ cd flashrom-0.9.1+r946
$ dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc -rfakeroot
Uwe.
