I had a problem today trying to install ruby 1.8.6 on Snow Leopard. I have unstable enabled, but fink could only see ruby 1.8.5 and not 1.8.6. I finally realized this is because the 1.8.5 info file does not specify a Distribution, while 1.8.6 says "Distribution: 10.5" and since mine (10.6) didn't match that, it fell back to the package without any such dependency. This doesn't seem like desirable behavior. I took out the line requiring 10.5 and it installed (with one hack where i add const to the second argument of BN_rand_range and BN_psuedo_rand_range in /sw/src/fink.build/ruby18-1.8.6-p287-101// ruby-1.8.6-p287/ext/openssl/openssl_missing.*)
