Title: Message

Jia,

 

I can't tell 
you why Ubuntu tried to install Ruby 1.8, but I do know that the epub transforms 
(which I think are the only ones that have a script that uses Ruby) work fine 
with Ruby 1.9. I use that combination all the time on my Ubuntu 
system.

 

Best

Subject: [docbook-apps] Is 
  DocBook-xsl compatible with Ruby 1.9?

Hi, 
  all:

I tried to install docbook-xsl from Ubuntu 9.10 
  repository.
But, it automatically pick up Ruby 1.8 to install.
I know 
  that to install both Ruby 1.8 and 1.9 is of no problem.
However, I'm just 
  wondering 

1) Is current docbook-xsl compatible with ruby 1.9 ?
2) 
  If so, does that mean it's Ubuntu's problem that docbook-xsl ask for Ruby 1.8 
  but not Ruby 1.9?

I just want to keep every simple and 
  clean.

Just don't want to install Ruby 1.8 on my 
  computer.

Best Regards
JIA
