# For Debian Squeeze + Backports + OpenSSL 1.0.0
# Part 1: Make a deb package of ruby:

# Get our deps
sudo su -c "echo deb http://backports.debian.org/debian-backports squeeze-backports main > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/squeeze-backports.list"
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y python-setuptools python-dev build-essential dpkg-dev libopenssl-ruby ruby1.8-dev rubygems bison autoconf zlib1g zlib1g-dev libreadline6 libreadline6-dev libssl1.0.0 libssl-dev

# Get ruby
if [ ! -f ruby-1.9.3-p327.tar.gz ]; then

# applied patches: 
# 1. performance and backport gc (aka the falcon patch)
curl https://raw.github.com/gist/3721562/07-backport-gc.diff | patch -p1
# 2. OPTIONAL: yaml.rb should not warn about using Syck instead of Pysch (libyaml). I don't parse a bajillion yaml documents, I don't need the awesome c speed of libyaml, however I do like &defaults more

# Package it
# Note: You should copy the .deb file to somewhere safe, I use the Internet.
# This also totally takes over ruby18 and anything that Debian considers to be "ruby". You have been warned.
