1.8.7 backported lot of stuff from 1.9, which broke RubySpec: http://blade.nagaokaut.ac.jp/cgi-bin/scat.rb/ruby/ruby-core/16554 At the end something of this was solved, but there are still some guards around some 1.8.7 specific stuff. 1.8.7 also introduced bugs for some GUI tools, like wxRuby: http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/wxruby-development/2008-April/001287.html Regarding the patchelevel stuff, the own tests for ruby don't pass, as I commented here: http://blade.nagaokaut.ac.jp/cgi-bin/scat.rb/ruby/ruby-core/17364 So I cannot provide an updated version of One-Click Installer for 1.8.7 or 1.8.6-p230 if: 1.8.7 break packages that OCI bundles (wxRuby) and p230 cannot complete it's own tests... > thank you very much - jw > No problem, take care!. -- Luis Lavena AREA 17 - Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.
