Normally all files are installed in e.g. /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/site_ruby/programname/. But when the files are installed in site_ruby, they are accessable by every other program. This is not needed, because these files are no libraries. My program simply is split in several files. Shouldn�t program files be installed in /usr/bin? Or maybe installing the files to: /usr/local/programname? Programs written in C are linked to one binary and installed to /usr/bin. This isn�t possible with ruby. I�ve heard, that there are tools for making one ruby file, out of several ruby files. (rake) But this isn�t what I am looking for. What is the official target for such files, which are not libraries and shouldn�t be accessed by any other program? Greetings Mike
