Subject: ruby-quota resurrection?
Hi,
I've been writing scripts to manage our quotas on Linux. Instead of
parsing 'repquota' I went looking for something beter. ruby-quota! Yeah!
However it appears to not have been update in a while. I can't even get
it compiled on my Linux 2.4 or 2.6 systems w/ Ruby 1.8.
I've never written a Ruby extension, but have done some investigation.
It appears that quota.h isn't being included on either 2.4 or 2.6 such
that "struct dqblk" is undefined. linux/quota.h appears to have changed
a lot. Could you maybe look into this and get ruby-quota running again
with ruby 1.8.x? If you don't have the time right now, perhaps a couple
of hints. 
BTW: The version number in quota.c doesn't match the packaged version
number.
My setup.
Debian(unstable) / Linux 2.6.7
Ruby ruby 1.8.2 (2004-06-19) [i386-linux]
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Emiel
