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? Allan
