Package: god
Version: 0.7.18-1
Severity: minor
Tags: patch
I have installed god and noticed that the package depends on rubygems ->
rubygems1.8 and they depend on build-essentials , installing all those
compiling stuff, that isnt
needed at all for this package, the path that the god package installs we dont
need to require rubygems library to expand the lib path to found it correctly.
Ive created a patch to not change the upstream package removing the require
rubygems line and removed rubygems for the depends field of the control file.
I just created a bug report to avoid to install unecessary package in
production environment
