Gunnar, I've uploaded the initial, draft, don't-laugh-at-me-it's-my-first-ever package for Redmine to the pkg-ruby-extras SVN repository. Please take a look and let me know what you think.
http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-ruby-extras/packages-wip/redmine/trunk/debian/?rev=0&sc=0 Rough edges: - The whole package; it probably so messed up it will format your drive! :) - Soft linking things that don't belong in /usr/share. I have moved the files/ and log/ directories, but config/ and public/ probably need to go to /var/lib as well. - The rules file is still pretty ugly, but it works. - I need a clean process for: - downloading the latest SVN from upstream - diff'ing between the versions - building the package - updating pkg-ruby-extras Building this package has forced me to think about RoR apps in general and where the fit into Debian. According to the rules /usr/share is for things that don't change between installs and /var is for things that do. With most of the app being outside resources (Rails, Vendor, etc.) and very little actually living in /usr/share, does it make sense to have anything in /usr/share? I tried to move config/ to a soft-link but it didn't like it very well. I'm just wondering what else will go wrong when/if I soft-link more things out to /var. Or is soft-linking the wrong way to go? Hmm... Thanx!
