Comment 1 Iain Arnell 2009-08-10 03:44:19 UTC
I'm happy to see that the ruby nopaste can be revived in EPEL, but I'm not so keen to see it resurrected elsewhere (what happens when pastebin.com goes away? another two month wait for an update?).  The major benefit of the perl implementation is that it is resilient to these problems - if one site goes down, it automatically tries a different one.

We've worked to alleviate Jason's concerns (in Bug #504108, comment 10): reducing the the size and number of dependencies pulled in by the perl version - there's still a fair few that are necessary, but they're all tiny (apart from perl itself, of course, but pretty much everyone has that already). I don't really see that as much of a problem.

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 12 development cycle.
Changing version to '12'.
