Hi all,
I'm doing a recompile of ruby for version 1.9. The needed are, in that order:
- recompile ruby to version 1.9 (no change)
- recompile vi and vim [applying the new patch's until version 108,
arch today only apply 65] and applying a patch for make compatible
with ruby1.9, it's done already.
- move rails to community
- removing rake and rubygems dependency
- drop rake and rubygems from community to /dev/null [ruby now provides both]
- verify which packages needed ruby and check compatibility
Hi Kessia,
Thanks for this info. I am currently ruby maintainer but have been
holding off doing the upgrade until I had time to figure all this out.
I will wait until Tobias decides what is happening with vi/vim/gvim
until I put ruby 1.9 into [testing].
Have you tried compiling any of the other packages in the repos against
ruby1.9?
