How many years have gone by now since the first user had the problem with this concerning ruby on debian at least? 3 years? Debian Users will continue to have split-up packages, and as a result continue to have all these problems which reoccur every some months on the list here, or on a forum somewhere else. This is a fundamental flaw in philosophy concerning packaging on Linux boxes altogether in fact. The only thing I do not quite understand is why debian developers do not tell the users loudly that these problems are because of debian, and not because of the ruby python etc... guys. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
