ruby-1.9.2

[ken@…]

While I was testing the book's version of ruby-1.9.1-p376 for openssl-1.0.0a I hit a build failure. Updating to the last 1.9.1 patchlevel failed to fix it. It's in the ssl code, but to me it looks like a gcc or glibc issue.

compiling openssl
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/ken/ruby-1.9.1-p430/ext/openssl'

make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/ken/ruby-1.9.1-p430/ext/openssl'
make: *** [mkmain.sh] Error 1

Fortunately, 1.9.2 builds without issue (patchlevel 0). I note that 'make test' is now a minimal build (1 minute 12 on this system), 'make check' is currently running and taking a much longer time - now finished, 7m40, 7665 tests, 2174195 assertions, 2 failures, 1 errors, 0 skips

YMMV (I have berkeley db but not tk on this system).

Updated milestone to 6.7

Since I'm going to update Subversion and the dang Ruby bindings are part of the package, I'll take this one one. Why oh why can't the developers split their bindings into separate packages.

Perhaps that would make life too easy.
