Please provide a libbz2 ebuild for ruby. The package "asami" requires it before it can go into portage. The main site is at http://moulon.inra.fr/ruby/bz2.html but it looks like downloads are available at http://raa.ruby-lang.org/project/bz2/. The asami project also has a prebuilt gem available: http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=359
Created attachment 89151 [details] Ruby-bz2 ebuild Works on amd64 with ruby1.8.4. I've changed the name of the package to ruby-bz2 because is confusing.
I missed a word in the last sentence. I meant that the old name "libbz2" is confusing.
Will try to take a look later today.
Now in portage, but no ~x86 keyword, so if you want that, please request keywording (or do it yourself ;) ).
