That's not the main issue. setup.rb or equivalent is going to be there anyway. why are we going to support two scripts to do the same thing? and if you say, just put it all in the rakefile, what difference does it make? You will just end up coping setup.rb into the rakefile. setup.rb provides features that you maybe not realize, such as alternate configuration and prefix, updates shebang lines, etc. T. _______________________________________________ libxml-devel mailing list libxml-devel@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/libxml-devel
