Adventures in Nerdville

For those of you living in a cave, there have been some pretty serious vulnerabilities found in ruby. See this link for the announcement.

In my trademark paranoia and goodwill, I have built myself a .deb package for the patched ruby. It is just a basic checkinstall generated package, but for those of you who have too much trouble running ./configure && make && checkinstall I have posted the package I generated. As always, I guarantee nothing, if you really care about your system, you will build the package yourself rather than downloading it from a nobody site such as mine.

Alas, here is is: ruby-1.8.6.230_i386.deb

Also, be warned, there is no dependancies listed in here, so if it breaks, sorry. Like I said, you should do the compiling yourself anyway. BTW, this was compiled using andLinux (Ubuntu Gutsy) running on WXP x86.

Enjoy
