Hi, I uploaded ruby1.6 and ruby-defaults (1.6.8-6) now. Packages built from ruby1.6 source package is simply renamed from ruby 1.6.8-5.
I plan ruby 1.8 transition: - Wait a while until ruby1.6 and ruby-defaults are installed, because these are NEW packages. - Keep ruby-defaults to 1.6 for about a week. In this period, ruby packages change to follow new debian ruby policy, renaming -ruby to -ruby1.6 or so. For important ruby module packages, that is, many packages depend on it, we'll NMU to rename -ruby to -ruby1.6 end of August(?) unless it is done by the maintainer. We already have ruby1.8 in unstable, you may build ruby packages named *-ruby1.8 for ruby1.8 now. - Change ruby-defaults from 1.6 to 1.8 Regards, Fumitoshi UKAI
