Hi Tomas, I downloaded your package to take a stab at repackaging it, but found you had this in your README: The upstream posixlock gem has not been ported and doesn't compile under ruby 1.9. -- Tomas Pospisek <tpo_...@sourcepole.ch> Tue, 03 Jul 2012 The last time upstream appears to have touched the code is in 2009, but Web references I found to it seem to be from 2005-2007 (maybe the http://www.codeforpeople.com/ server was installed in 2009?); the code is really tied into the C structures of Ruby objects, and I agree with your comment: It fails to build for 1.9.3. Now, although this functionality seems important, the package has no reverse dependencies, and has a very low popcon index. So, I'd suggest filing a bug for its removal. It would be best if you could file this bug; otherwise, I can do it, but please tell me if I should proceed (or, of course, if I should _not_ do so). > <rant> > Also I own a HP 6710 series laptop that contains an AMD Seymour > Radeon HD 6400M/7400M Series discrete gfx chip that aparently can't > be switched off and completely randomly switches itself on and sucks > all power out of the batteries, so working off grid over more than > an hour is practically impossible.
