[Bug 393888] Re: Ruby 1.9.0 curses Alt-key handling broken
Sorry for the late reply. It does happen with the 1.9 ruby package in Karmic. It doesn't happen when I build from source (apt-get source ruby1.9.1 apt-get build-dep ruby1.9.1). But it's hard to tell because I likely have all kinds of build dependencies installed. In the next few days, I'll find some time to create another virtual machiene running the ubuntu-virtual-server image of lucid. That should clear things up as to what packages have this bug and what triggers it. I suppose it's better that I test the lucid situation than the karmic situation anyways. Just a general question: what will the ruby transitional package refer to? And what will be the default dependency of ruby related packages (like diakonos or passenger) to depend upon? I would really like to see Ubuntu make the transition away from ruby 1.8 .. nobody is running stock ruby1.8 with passenger on a production server. They are either running ruby enterprise editition or ruby 1.9, because the performance simple isn't acceptable otherwise. It would be really great if apt-get install ruby ruby-gems apache-module-passenger .. setup a working 1.9.1 setup. Unfortunately I'm not a C programmer and am not too familiar with their build system. But i'll do my best to pinpoint the problems and possible diversions from upstream that are responsible for the issues. -- Ruby 1.9.0 curses Alt-key handling broken https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/393888 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Not so off topic. Diakonos' site links here. I've just finished building ruby 1.9.2 for Diakonos, everything seems to work just fine for me now.

[Bug 393888] Re: Ruby 1.9.0 curses Alt-key handling broken
I've nominated this for server-papercuts. Although it's not that important, it's sort of annoying that ruby scripts can't deal with curses properly when using 1.9. It means no diakonos, but worse: no io terminal based ruby scripts. Also, outside of this bug scope, (i'm sorry to put this here) but I would like the server guys to try to get the ruby platform together. Debian has completely up their ruby support. My suggestion is quite simple. Make ruby default to 1.9.2 And create a ruby-passenger-apache metapackage. One that actually works. This would install passenger, ruby, gem and configure apache. Just because we can do apt-get install rails, doesn't mean it's wise and EVERYBODY is advising against it. For your information to current workaround EVERBODY uses for ruby now is: - install build-essentials, apache dev-headers - download ruby - compile and install ruby yourself (which by default includes gem now) - gem install passenger - passenger-install-apache module What it should be like: - apt-get install ruby1.9.2 gem1.9.2 - apt-get install apache-module-passenger - gem install rails Rails shouldn't be packaged. Sites we make or share don't work with rails. They work with a specific version of rails. Gem can install any version side-by-side. Oh now, we are at it, diakonos has a new upstream version as well that fixes a few annoying bugs. Diakonos should be a great contenter for default text-editor on the ubuntu server platform. (it has all the nice vim features, but defaults to keybindings of gedit/kedit .. ) Diakonos requires 1.9.2 .. btw .. i don't know why current package depends on ruby1.8 (it's a mistake) Please, for the LTS release, make ruby support less of nightmare. We would be even better off with not having any ruby related package in the repositories, if you can't fix the current ones, because that would save a lot of people a lot of time. -- Ruby 1.9.0 curses Alt-key handling broken https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/393888 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
