Hi Vincent,
If I understand it correctly, ruby-full will depend only on packages built from the ruby1.8 source (ie core+stdlib+irb+ri+...). If so, why not integrate it into the ruby1.8 source package ? Also, what are the opinions of the ruby1.8 maintainers about that ? -- | Lucas Nussbaum | [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.lucas-nussbaum.net/ | | jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] GPG: 1024D/023B3F4F | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
