Ruby has to be one of the only popular languages without a standard apache module. Do the Phusion people not see the value in getting their software packaged into a major distribution like RedHat? And getting it into Fedora would be the first step towards that happening. Do they not realize the wide acceptance and popularity they would get (at least in the US and maybe worldwide) by being bundled with a large vendor's OS out of the box? Instead they want their customers to jump through hoops to install their software. Why do software tools have to reinvent packaging systems outside of the OS package management system anyway, like Ruby's Gems, Perl's CPAN & Python's Eggs. From a sysadmin perspective, this is horrible and should be avoided at all costs. Anyway, since my main objective was to install a scalable puppet server, and since puppet recently released 2.6.1 which supports JRuby, I guess I will now be forced to look into that as an alternative, with tomcat. I'm sorry I reopened this can of worms. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ package-review mailing list package-review@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/package-review
