On a side note: Do your friendly SysAdmin Neigboorhood a favor and either: a) Exactly specify which eggs (or gems for ruby) you need (and their version) b) Talk to them about wether you could get your eggs packaged In all cases talk to them ahead of time. (does that sound strange or what?) We have a policy where unpackaged and untesteted software isn't allowed. Unpackaged being no .debs available as we go with debian. There were quite often annoyances when we refused to "just install" stuff from gems or eggs, after quite some fighting (with the project leaders, and C*O mainly, not so much the devs) we managed to get more involved in the process of development and could place some requests. It paid of in being able to keep our service levels more easily, and only being a very minor glitch if the devs get some input beforehand and don't have to plug monitoring features in a product never designed to have that feature... regards, Martin -- http://soup.alt.delete.co.at http://www.xing.com/profile/Martin_Marcher http://www.linkedin.com/in/martinmarcher You are not free to read this message, by doing so, you have violated my licence and are required to urinate publicly.
