i notice that almost all pre 1.9 gems wont compile in ruby1.9 because
of the ff error (or something like it),
: error: ‘struct RArray’ has no member named ‘len’
: error: ‘struct RArray’ has no member named ‘ptr’
....
the typical solution i do is outlined here
http://frozenplague.net/2009/01/ruby-191-rubygems-rails/#gem_solution,
and it works 100% on my case (glad hasn't failed yet).
can this solution be handled by the rubygem preprocessor? maybe,
signal a flag of some sort, or do a best-effort processing of some
sort ?...
kind regards -botp
You could probably write a RubyGems plugin to do it using the pre_install hook.
