Re: [Rubycocoa-talk] packaging ruby within an RC app

[Eloy D. <elo...@gm...>]

It really depends on the gem....
Like I said earlier Hpricot for instance builds as a universal binary
without any problems.

Getting ruby to play nice with universal is the first hurdle.
I have it finally compiling as a universal, the only last problem is
with the openssl lib.
Once that's done I'll have a look at if mkmf needs additional patching
for C extensions to build as universal binaries.
