-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Hello guys, I'm currently reviewing r10k (Puppet software add-on) for Debian.
During that I noticed a package I'd need is only available in a old/different version. There are 2 gems called minitar: archive-tar-minitar (https://rubygems.org/gems/archive-tar-minitar) Version: 0.5.2 Last Release: 2008 minitar (https://rubygems.org/gems/minitar) Version: 0.5.4 Release: 2012 The second Gem is from different maintainer, but based on the first. There seem to be no problems in terms of compatibility. What I would suggest is to switch to "ruby-minitar", with a transactional/compat package ruby-archive-tar-minitar. The compat package would have to ship a gemspec, so that the gem "archive-tar-minitar" can be found by software that references the old gem. In addition it might be helpful to open bugs against dependent packages, for review. Would you support or oppose that?
