Hi all, I've been doing a bit of work on the Ruby 2.0 packages. I maintain some unofficial Ruby package builds for Ubuntu (and have been doing for years[1]) - mostly just backporting the good work you Debian people do.
This time though I think I've got something worth feeding back upstream and thought it was about time I got involved. So I took Antonio Terceiro's initial work and: * fixed some install paths * updated symbols for i386/amd64 builds * converted a mis-commited change to the source to a patch * added the patch from 1.9.3 that debianizes rubygems * updated Ruby version to 2.0.0p195 I also removed a deleted_on_clean tarballing thing, but I didn't actually quite understand it so I might have been mistaken doing that. I pushed the code to github: https://github.com/brightbox/deb-ruby2.0 Is this of use like this? I don't know the best way to contribute my work to the Debian effort. Happy for any guidance or hand holding offered :) I've done a lot of work packaging Passenger 4 too: https://github.com/johnl/deb-passenger/commits/passenger4 that's way more involved though, and I suspect more complicated to be contributed back upstream. Perhaps for another thread: https://github.com/johnl/deb-passenger/commits/passenger4 Hope some of this can be of use. Thanks, John. 1: https://launchpad.net/~brightbox -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
