Subject: [ANN] YARV for ArchLinux

Had some minutes to spend today and thought it would be pretty neat to haveYARV (as announced on http://redhanded.hobix.com/cult/yarvMergedMatz.html) onArchLinux, so i went ahead and created a little PKGBUILD :)
one can find it at AUR (ruby-yarv-svn):http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?do_Details=1&ID=4191
installation as usual (aurbuild, qpkg or makepkg yourself)
Not sure if this belongs to ruby-talk, but for all the ruby-addicted archersout there this is pretty good news :)after installation one can use it with ruby_yarv - there are issues withrubygems as everybody might expect, so calm down a bit - your favorite gemswon't run on it (yet).
And it's also a little reminder for all the other maintainers out there, buildsome packages for YARV, people want to try it and there is no reason why theyshouldn't be able to do it ;)
Not to mention that it would be pretty good advertisement for ruby to havesomething to show off, right?
