rubygem-passenger upstream is a Ruby on Rails deployment utility that practically makes installing a new version of a Ruby on Rails web application a drag-and-drop action. Anyway;

One part of the upstream release is the Ruby Gem - which, when installed, offers a command that says;

passenger-install-apache2-module

which is mod_rails/mod_rack, and can be loaded in httpd so that it's all nice and integrated and nifty.

Problem is, "passenger-install-apache2-module" is building the .so and now I'm seeing a chicken-or-egg problem;

I need the gem to be installed to be able to build the httpd module, and the httpd module is built from the same source(s).

Hello.

I don't know rubygem-passenger at all and only tried to write a spec file
for this package very quickly (so I don't know how/if my spec file works),
however I guess my quick draft can be useful:

http://mtasaka.fedorapeople.org/rubygem_specs/rubygem-passenger.spec

! note:
 Currently this spec file makes many rpmlint errors or warnings but
 I just wrote this spec file quickly and didn't try to suppress these
 messages.

! note 2:
 Also please refer to the current discussion about rubygems with C code:
