Hi!

Couldn't find any information about this. What is the right way to
handle gems for several architectures?

For the Proj4rb project 'rake gem' created those gems on Linux and Mac,
respectively:

    proj4rb-0.2.1-i486-linux.gem
    proj4rb-0.2.1-universal-darwin8.0.gem

Now on Linux when I do a

    gem install proj4rb

it pulls the darwin one instead of the linux one. Of course, I can do
a

    gem install proj4rb-0.2.1-i486-linux

and it will do the right thing, but shouldn't it do this automatically?

Maybe it has something to do with the darwin one beeing an universal
binary which works on i386 and PPC. So at the rubyforge release form
I said "any" for the platform.

Any ideas on what the right procedure is here?
