But to get this version it needs to be built and installed from source. $ gem list ffi -r *** REMOTE GEMS *** ffi (0.5.4) Is v0.6.0 ready to release? If not what else needs to be done to get it ready?FWIW, Nokogiri 1.4.1 is green on FFI 0.6.0.
Is it green on both FFI 0.6.0 and JRuby 1.4? I mainly want to be sure that the changes to ffi_lib behaviour are both forward and backward compatible (or can be made to work), so gems work on both 0.6.0 and older JRuby releases. Other than that, it probably needs to be checked that everything works fine on at least: - i386-Linux, x86_64-Linux; at least on RHEL and Ubuntu - i386-Darwin, x86_64-Darwin; 10.6.2 works for me, but no idea if it works on 10.5 or 10.4 - win32 (mainly using the rubyinstaller ruby builds, but also I guess the older VC compiled ones) - esoteric things like ppc-linux, whatever-*BSD and solaris
