On repacking rmagick under the Gem2deb infrastructure (and #625558)
Hi,
[ Explicitly Cc:ing the librmagick-ruby co-maintainers, but for
anybody who cares ]
I am repackaging RMagick from our old style to the Gem2deb one - And I
must say it was more painless that I expected! I am, however, not yet
uploading the new packages until you -who have worked more with the
package than myself- agree that there are no problems with it. The git
repo is at:
git+ssh://git.debian.org/git/pkg-ruby-extras/ruby-rmagick.git
http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-ruby-extras/ruby-rmagick.git
Some points:
• The packaging didn't so far include a Ruby 1.9.1 version - I checked
it and it works perfectly \o/
• The gem2deb infrastructure no longer builds the HTML
documentation. Now, in order to build the documentation, we were
running the examples - And as the package does not ship a test
suite, I listed all of the examples in debian/ruby-test-files.yaml
(except for vignette.rb, which requires an X connection)
• Of course, I know that we should test with the upcoming ImageMagick
release (#625558). I have not yet done anything in that regard, but
it should be as simple as installing the right build-deps from
experimental.
That should be it. Please tell if you feel something is wrong... I'll
leave a couple of days before acting on this, to allow for comments.
