Hi Tim,
have you read: [1]https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/Ruby/Packaging ? It's a good start. Cheers, Ondrej On Fri, Jul 25, 2014, at 05:53, Potter, Tim (Cloud Services) wrote: Hi everyone. I'm interested in helping out with Ruby packaging for Debian. In particular I'm keen on a rather ambitious project - to package elasticsearch and logstash. There's some work in progress already on the debian-java list for the Java dependencies, and I thought I would also start looking at the Ruby gems required for logstash plugins. My initial list of gems required for the logstash plugins is pretty long about thirty gems. Too boring to list here? Just to get my feet wet I've had an initial go at ruby-awesome-print using the instructions on the Teams/Ruby/Packaging wiki page. [2]http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/users/tpot-guest/ruby-awesome -print/ There appears to be some different in the way dh_ruby runs rspec tests vs the command line so a patch is required: --- ruby-awesome-print-1.2.0.orig/spec/spec_helper.rb +++ ruby-awesome-print-1.2.0/spec/spec_helper.rb @@ -16,7 +16,6 @@ # $LOAD_PATH.unshift(File.dirname(__FILE__)) $LOAD_PATH.unshift(File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), '..', 'lib')) +require 'rspec' require 'awesome_print' def stub_dotfile! I'm not sure whether making a patch using dpkg-source --commit is the correct approach though. Does anyone care to chime in?
