Greetings all, I am happy to announce the opening of my own personal repository to store packages in for Debian/Ubuntu. Chiefly amongst these, is the new deb package for wxRuby! This will solve the issues that people have been having attempting to install wxruby from the gem on Ubuntu 9.10 and later. To setup this apt-repository on your Debian / Ubuntu system, simply run the following commands: wget -q http://repo.trilake.net/apt/repo.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add - sudo wget http://repo.trilake.net/apt/sources.list.d/lucid.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/trilake.list Once you do the above, simply execute: sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install wxruby To install the wxRuby 2.0.1 deb package on your system. Currently, only a 32bit version is available, but I will be updating my repository with a 64bit version once I have the package built on my server. Any questions, comments, suggestions, what have you, please feel free to email me.

This repository will help with people needing an easy and familiar way to install the wxRuby package on systems that they are developing on, as well as setting up a way for easy distribution on Debain based Linux systems. If you have an application that you want to package as a deb, or want to include in my repository, please feel free to email me off-list, and I will help out in any way I can.
