Hi,

Could you please use git tags to label commits corresponding to new release? This would be very useful to follow the development.

Also, is it possible to release 0.0.9 as a gem on rubygems.org (possibly containing specs and examples). This is often the starting point for Debian packaging of Ruby libraries (Having the specs in the gem allows distribution to run them when preparing packages to test if everything is ok).

Thanks!

I try:

gem install dep_selector

and get an error:

c:/tools/Ruby192/bin/ruby.exe extconf.rb

checking for main() in -lgecodesearch... no

Gecode >3.5 must be installed (http://www.gecode.org/).

OSX:
brew install gecode

For convenience, we have built Gecode for Debian/Ubuntu ( is lucid or maverick):
Add the following two lines to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/opscode.list:
deb http://apt.opscode.com main
deb-src http://apt.opscode.com main
Then run:
curl http://apt.opscode.com/[email protected] | sudo apt-key add -
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libgecode-dev

Other distributions can build from source.

*** extconf.rb failed ***
Could not create Makefile due to some reason, probably lack of
necessary libraries and/or headers. Check the mkmf.log file for more

I have installed geocode using the windows installer and restarted CMD so I see it added to my path. But the install still does not work.

Hi,

In 2013, the version 4.0 of the gecode library went out with major modifications breaking dep_selector: the notable changes are:

• Restart class is now called RBS. This template class takes an additional parameter representing the engine to use. The constructor doesn't have a default value for the search option.
• the statistics do not provide info about memory by default anymore
• branching value selections are now functions.

You can see what changes were applied in Debian for the version 0.0.8 at
http://patch-tracker.debian.org/package/ruby-dep-selector/0.0.8-2 (not available at the moment but should be in a few hours). I adapted the patch to 0.0.9 in a pull request.

Thanks
