Description Patrice Dumas 2008-07-04 21:20:24 UTC
Description of problem:

The static library should be in a ruby-static subpackage.
In my opinion it could be called libruby.a (maybe with a
link to libruby-static.a for backward compatibility)
This package should 
Provides: ruby-libs-static = %{version}-%{release}
if you want to be backward compatible.

See Bug#428384. -devel package requires the static library to get it working
anyway. I don't think having separate package for the static library does help
something really in this case.

Comment 2 Patrice Dumas 2008-07-08 12:12:18 UTC
I have seen where the static lib is put in the link, but is the static
lib really needed to link against libruby?

requested by Jens Petersen (#27995)

Comment 4 Fedora Admin XMLRPC Client 2009-01-30 12:44:53 UTC
This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database.  Reassigning to the new owner of this component.

Comment 5 Mamoru TASAKA 2010-01-22 07:51:52 UTC
