I have updated libdbi-ruby and libdbd-pg-ruby on my home page[1] with versions which are, in my opinion, suitable for upload. If over this weekend no problems with these packages will surface, I will upload them on Monday.
-----[ README.Debian Ruby/DBI for Debian ------------------- Ruby/DBI source includes drivers for following databases: ADO (ActiveX Data Objects), DB2, InterBase, mSQL, MySQL, ODBC, Oracle, PostgreSQL, Proxy/Server, SQLite, SQLRelay, Sybase (outdated and doesn't work). Currently, only PostgreSQL driver is packaged, because I have neither ability nor time to package and test properly all other drivers. Everyone interested in getting other Ruby/DBI drivers into Debian are welcome to coordinate with me and subscribe to the libdbi-ruby package on the PTS (http://packages.qa.debian.org/libd/libdbi-ruby.html), collaborative maintenance is also an option. -- Dmitry Borodaenko <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Fri, 15 Nov 2002 12:52:30 +0200 ------[ ITP email log On Thu, Nov 14, 2002 at 07:51:05PM +0200, Dmitry Borodaenko wrote: PL>>> Maybe we should forma a Task Force for this.
