Re: rails pkg

Ok, this suits me equally well (although I had to subscribe).

Anyway I was thinking (along the way home from work) that we probably should provide only one version of rails in each Debian release (e.g. move our problems to our downstream packages :)).

We have only few downstream packages and it's not worth our time and energy to keep two and more versions of rails just for one or two r-dependencies.

Hi Ondřej,

I suggest we use debian-ruby@lists.debian.org for discussion instead.

I think we should use that to indicate which is the official Rails
version that we consider the default (just as ruby-defaults,
gcc-defaults etc). So right now I think we should bump it to 3.2.

When Rails 4 is out, and if we decide that it should be the default,
then we bump `rails` to depend on the rails 4 components.
