Forwarding this since I'm just now realizing I opened a duplicate ITP for ruby-psych.
----- Forwarded message from Miguel Landaeta <nomad...@debian.org> ----- Date: Wed, 8 Mar 2017 20:04:36 +0000 From: Miguel Landaeta <nomad...@debian.org> To: Debian Bug Tracking System <sub...@bugs.debian.org> Subject: ITP: ruby-psych -- A libyaml wrapper for Ruby User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.23 (2014-03-12) Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Miguel Landaeta <nomad...@debian.org> * Package name : ruby-psych Version : 2.2.4 Upstream Author : Aaron Patterson <tenderl...@github.com> * URL : https://github.com/ruby/psych * License : Expat Programming Lang: Ruby, C, Java Description : A libyaml wrapper for Ruby ruby-psych is a YAML parser and emitter. Psych leverages libyaml for its YAML parsing and emitting capabilities. In addition to wrapping libyaml, Psych also knows how to serialize and de-serialize most Ruby objects to and from the YAML format. . Psych has been included with the main Ruby implementation since 1.9.2, and is the default YAML parser from 1.9.3 and beyond. - Although psych is part of the Ruby standard library and is included in libruby2.3 package, I propose to package this library in a separate package mainly for two reasons: * A Ruby developer could want or need a more updated version of this library than the one bundle in the standard library. This will be provided in ruby-psych package. * JRuby depends on psych Java extension. Currently this extension is being bundled in jruby package but the right thing is to have this in a jruby-psych package. - It will be maintained in Debian Ruby Extras Maintainers team. -- Miguel Landaeta, nomadium at debian.org secure email with PGP 0x6E608B637D8967E9 available at http://miguel.cc/key.
