The XMMS2 build system uses the system default ruby to get its compiler flags for the ruby bindings. This can be overridden by setting the RUBY environment to point to another executable. Just verified this and Ruby 1.9.1 builds just fine. Support for 1.9.x has been available in XMMS2 since january 2008. -- Daniel Svensson -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
