When compiling ruby from source (either 1.8.6 or 1.9) both get fastthread enabled by default, you need to explicitly disable it in case that you don't want it (which I will doubt). So unless you depend on a package made by debian which they decided not to enable that helpful flag, you will not need to worry. Again, modern Ruby no need for fastthread (is built-in in ruby) so mongrel will remove fastthread from the dependency and required if present. That sounds better explanation? -- 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.
