According to Stanislav Sedov: > Log: > - Update ruby18 to 1.8.7p72. I'm not sure this is a good idea, lots of people, including me, find 1.8.7 too incompatible with 1.8.6 to be that useful. It includes backport of a few 1.9.1 constructs and that is breaking scripts. There are quite a few discussions on that (see http://ruby-forum.com/forum/4) and the jury (so to say) is still out. Could you instead create a ruby187 port and keep ruby18 as is it? Or the other way around? -- Ollivier ROBERT -=- FreeBSD: The Power to Serve! -=- roberto@keltia.freenix.fr Dons / donation Ondine : http://ondine.keltia.net/
