Beat me to it by a split hair ;-) Yes, I think we should upload as it is, as having it die on a situation where Debian-packaged modules can work is clearly a bug. Regarding semacode, we *could* remove the module from the shipped tree, but I'm not sure: This would prevent the situation from getting fixed by a simple upload :( I quickly checked whether 'gem2deb semacode-ruby19' works, and it does produce a package (and the tests succeed with both 1.9 and 2.0). bu tI don't have the time to dig into whether everything's fine. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
