He is talking about http://rubyforge.org/projects/rubygems Find the debian source package (not uploaded yet) at: http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-ruby-extras it is in packages/libgems-ruby/ This is also worth reading: http://pkg-ruby-extras.alioth.debian.org/rubygems.html but I do believe it is possible to install ruby extras (just like perl modules) as both: debian packages (packaging system domain) and via RubyGems (local admin domain) -- pub 4096R/0E4BD0AB 2003-03-18 <people.fccf.net/danchev/key pgp.mit.edu> fingerprint 1AE7 7C66 0A26 5BFF DF22 5D55 1C57 0C89 0E4B D0AB -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
