Rubyinstaller devel - Apr 2008 - Ruby 1.8.7-preview1 binaries uploaded

Hello Guys,

The readline issues are still forcing me do it this manually, even
when I have Integration builder in place [1]

Anyway, I''ve updated the 7z files in the dump location [2], still
waiting to have more spare time to work on the MSI scripts.

I think this coming weekend will be a great time to work on those,
even I still have a series of [BUG] and segfaults to track down
(wxRuby).

Also, when worked getting DataMapper run on Windows, found that the
current version of OpenSSL we ship with Installer3 is older and made
PostgreSQL fail.

So, after all, I think we will require manually build the external
libraries that Ruby depends on.

Thoughts?

I''ll try to work on compiling OpenSSL some more this weekend.

Also, I get a "Connection timed out" error when I go to
http://builder.mmediasys.com:8333/

Thanks,

Gordon

Yeah, forgot to put that system in the UPS, and turned down the power
when leaving the office.

Sorry for that :-(

I think I need to re-work the whole rake recipes and compilation
procedures, to allow building theses dependencies with the rake files.

Maybe abuse of Ruby power and do my own DSL that generates the require
rake task for it? After all, done that several times for projects like
mongrel_service and it''s dependencies.

The only ones that can turn into a nightmare are gettext and libiconv,
they need build two times since they depend each other... (what kind
of sadistic programmer designed that?)

I''m installing Vista at the office to see what is happening with it :-P
