Hi, I've looked at the hivex source package, but couldn't find ruby bindings there. For guestfs, I'd suggest ignoring the Rakefile completely, and using gem2deb to build the extension. I don't think that gem2deb can use a different root directly at the moment. Antonio, what do you think? Lucas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
