I suggest you don't use different package management systems - Either you handle _all_ of your Ruby modules and components (i.e. Mongrel) via Gems, or _all_ of them via dpkg. And I favor the later, as it guarantees better integration with your whole operating system. If you mix some .deb packages and some Gems, you will end up with an unadministrable system, and problems such as this will lead you to problems such as what you are experiencing. Ubuntu is currently shipping Mongrel 1.0.1 in its Gutsy release [1]; I just uploaded 1.1.1 to Debian's unstable release [2]. Of course, I won't also recommend you to use Debian's version in Ubuntu (it leads to a similar chaos)... But just in case you want to use Debian proper :) [1] http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/web/mongrel [2] http://packages.debian.org/sid/mongrel -- Gunnar Wolf - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - (+52-55)5623-0154 / 1451-2244 PGP key 1024D/8BB527AF 2001-10-23 Fingerprint: 0C79 D2D1 2C4E 9CE4 5973 F800 D80E F35A 8BB5 27AF _______________________________________________ Mongrel-users mailing list Mongrel-users@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/mongrel-users
