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

[Tim P. <he...@ti...>]

Just bringing this thread back for a moment... I know we were  
discussing natively compiled gems such as hpricot and libxml-ruby,  
but then I got to thinking that these are two very different  
propositions. hpricot just has C extensions that need to be compiled,  
where as libxml ruby actually needs to find compiled libxml2  
libraries on the path in order to work. Would I then be wrong in  
thinking that it needs those libraries (libxml2, iconv etc) to  
operate rather than just compile? If so, they would also need to be  
packaged would they not? As a universal binary also?

I found this nice link too... http://www.complex-computer.de/
