But I do use them myself. I still install Ruby via apt (as described in the original thread on this topic), for which I install six packages including ruby1.8-dev and build-essential. I've not been instructing people to just 'use the rails package', I've been demonstrating that installing rails is not as hard as everyone else is making out. > So don't characterize me as not doing enough for people using Debian.

I didn't characterize you in that way, nor have I asked you to "bend your project". If you feel that I have, then I'm sorry. -- Dave Murphy (Schwuk) http://schwuk.com _______________________________________________ Mongrel-users mailing list Mongrel-users@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/mongrel-users
