This was just posted on gentoo-dev: QUOTE: Ruby 1.8.1 will be available in the near future (I just committed ruby-1.8.1_pre2.ebuild) and I think it is the time to switch to 1.8. If users want ruby-1.6.8 along with 1.8.x they will be able to use both 1.6.8 and 1.8.x (since they have different SLOT now). We will concentrate on supporting packages for 1.8 from now on but keep 1.6.8 packages as well in case some packages may still be broken. /QUOTE It appears that it is slotted so you will have both side-by-side. 1.8 will not be removed - you will probably need to specify ruby versions to emerge until this gets sorted out completely.. - -- Matt http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x7D81740A -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/oshKZosHVX2BdAoRAtz8AJ9Dclv8Of3Nvye9ckds55MjaNreyQCeNQbH lYBt/byyWhjsu4YaBfOivv8= =+u4Q -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
