£25,000, how long would it take set up a repo so you could do go: sudo apt-get install rails-3.2 on Ubuntu/Debian?

- bratsche 15y agoUbuntu has a rails package already, and nobody uses it. It only serves to confuse new users. Trying to mix deb and gem just hasn't worked well so far. Making a Rails.app for Mac is different though, because everything would be isolated in your .app, while a .deb would install the files to the system and track them in the package management database, so trying to modify them outside of apt-get/dpkg just b0rks everything.
