So, there it is: I extracted the gem/tarball conversion logic from gemwatch and created gem2tgz. svn+ssh://svn.debian.org/svn/pkg-ruby-extras/trunk/gem2tgz I would appreciate some review (and eventually sponsoring ;)) I've also changed gemwatch to use it, but having the new code in production will require uploading a lenny backport of gem2tgz and getting it installed on alioth. -- Antonio Terceiro <terceiro@softwarelivre.org> http://softwarelivre.org/terceiro
