[opensuse] YAST uses Ruby? Why can't I do Ruby/Tk?
Yes, YAST has compatibility mode bit it also produces X style graphics in KDE & Gnome etc. But whenever I try using Ruby/Tk it breaks. There's a lot of stuff on the bug in Ruby that causes this but no fixes in distributions, it seems. What's the workaround? Do I have to drill down though the YAST codebase to find this or can someone tell me what the solution to doing Tk style graphics with Ruby is.

It could be faster to ask in #yast channel Freenode IRC. YaST developers are using it. And when I asked there, I always get very quick and exact answer. -- Vojtěch Zeisek Komunita openSUSE GNU/Linuxu Community of the openSUSE GNU/Linux http://www.opensuse.org/ http://trapa.cz/

yast has nothing to do with ruby-tk. the TK bindings didnt work with the tcl/tk version we shipped for a long time. with ruby 2.2 this was fixed so we ship the ruby TK bindings again. hth -- openSUSE - SUSE Linux is my linux openSUSE is good for you www.opensuse.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Thank you immensely! I've found 2.2 (as well as 2.3) in Repository: devel:languages:ruby Version: 2.2.3-14.1 and Version: 2.3.preview1-4.1 Vendor: obs://build.opensuse.org/devel:languages:ruby Subsequent problems are with script and fat fingers :-) -- A: Yes. > Q: Are you sure? >> A: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. >>> Q: Why is top posting frowned upon? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
