Description: Ruby interpreter that won't integrate with Debian packages
Ruby is the interpreted scripting language for quick and easy
object-oriented programming. It has many features to process text
files and to do system management tasks (as in perl). It is simple,
straight-forward, and extensible.
.
This package provides a Ruby interpreter without providing support for other
Debian-provided Ruby packages, i.e. it won't use any code from Debian packages
that provide Ruby libraries, Rubygems won't recognize libraries installed with
Debian packages etc.
.
This package is mostly useful for server deployments or development
environments where one wants or needs to obtain the Ruby interpreter from
Debian (and thus benefit from having security updates, not having to build
from source, obtaining pre-built binaries from a trusted source etc.), but
install everything else from sources external to Debian such as rubygems.org.
.
No official Debian Ruby packages, application or library, should depend on this
package.
