Bug#741458: RM: ruby1.8/1.8.7.358-10



Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: rm

Dear Release Team,

Ruby 1.8 is an old version of the Ruby interpreter. It is no longer
security-supported upstream. #731866 has been opened by the security
team to track removal of 1.8.

We, the current interpreter maintainers, believe it's time for 1.8
to finally be removed from testing.

There are two minor r-deps that need to go with it:

dak rm -nR -s testing ruby1.8 ruby-bdb libfilesystem-ruby
[...]
Checking reverse dependencies...
No dependency problem found.

Thank you!
Christian
