vcard-0.2.12.ebuild

This is used by the Redmine people plugin (from https://github.com/RCRM/redmine_people). I've tested it with ruby19, but have taken the gem's word that it works with ruby20 and ruby21.

If the ruby team doesn't want to maintain this, I'm happy to, but can someone give it a quick review to make sure I didn't do anything stupid? Thanks!

Please add working tests to the ebuild first. If you need help, feel free to ask in #gentoo-ruby

Thanks, I've enabled the test suite and turned off the default rdoc recipe (which crashed with USE=doc).

I avoided the rake recipe in favor of test-unit and a custom src_test according to the wiki and some examples I found. The test suite passes for ruby19/ruby20 here but I have yet to try it with ruby21 (portage threw a fit when I tried to enable it).

Does it work with ruby22? 
If so, add it. 
Please add a slot to test-unit

If you add it to the tree, feel free to add <herd>ruby</herd> in addition to yourself as maintainer.

Btw. if you're going to add redmine plugins to the tree, please think about maintaining redmine, too. It still has bug #491758 open and its maintainers seem to be inactive.

ruby-2.2 was an adventure but it looks like it works =)

I added that and a slot dep on test-unit. I have a few more of these; I'll commit them all this weekend with myself as maintainer and <herd>ruby</herd>.

Thanks again for the reviews.

Unfortunately while we use Redmine, I don't use the web-apps version, And I don't like how most of the web-apps stuff works so I wouldn't make a very good maintainer. Instead I maintain a package in an overlay called www-dependencies/redmine, which installs only the deps, and I handle the Redmine install myself.

I still need all of Redmine's dependencies, of course, so if you'd like help maintaining any of those, I'd rather do it in-tree than in an overlay.
