The ruby port should probably be renamed to / replaced_by ruby18. There should probably be a ruby-select port. The ruby portgroup would then need to be overhauled as well. I don't think anybody's worked on the ruby ports in awhile; if you're interested you should coordinate with the ruby maintainer. > Slightly related: I wanna install earthquake, but get the source using > github.

Yes, the github portgroup should be able to coexist with other portgroups. _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-dev
