Hi guys,
here is a sumup of the last 2-hour FPC meeting, that me and Mo have attended:
- Virtual provides are going to be killed completely (e.g. new packages will 
now depend on ruby-foo or rubygem-foo, rather than on ruby(foo) or 
rubygem(foo); no provides will be therefore necessary, as the package name is 
enough for this).

I could not make it to the meeting, but I have some issue with this.
There are efforts to maintain a stable API rubygems called slimgems
[1]. They forked rubygems at the 1.3.6 version.
It provides ruby(rubygems), and probably greater than 80% can replace Require: rubygems
with
   Require: ruby(rubygems)

If this moved to ruby-rubygems, then none of the rubygem-foo would be
compatible with slimgems.

Further, for noarch ruby libraries, how will this change accommodate
jruby?



Take care,
vb
