I've installed Ruby 1.8 using fink on my iBook :
ruby 1.8.0-1 Symlinks to ruby1.8
ruby18 1.8.0-1 Interpreted, object-oriented scripting language
ruby18-dev 1.8.0-1 ruby static library
ruby18-shlibs 1.8.0-1 ruby shared libraries
ruby-dev 1.8.0-1 Compatibility package
by the end of install step i get the following :
Selecting previously deselected package ruby18-dev.
Unpacking ruby18-dev (from .../ruby18-dev_1.8.0-1_darwin-powerpc.deb)
....
dpkg: error processing ruby-dev (--install):

[path]ruby-dev_1.8.0-1_darwin-powerpc.deb
[path]ruby18_1.8.0-1_darwin-powerpc.deb
[path]ruby_1.8.0-1_darwin-powerpc.deb
[path]ruby18-shlibs_1.8.0-1_darwin-powerpc.deb
[path]ruby18-dev_1.8.0-1_darwin-powerpc.deb
and the final "Done"
then i've typin :
iB:~> ruby --version
ruby 1.8.0 (2003-08-04) [powerpc-darwin]
seems to be correct.
however i wonder about the error for ruby-dev which as been archived and
not installed.
what kind of test could be done in order to verify this fresh install ?
