MacPorts Portfile needs update to reflect new build procedure

Reported by lyle (at lylejohnson) | October 27th, 2009 @ 08:34 PM | in 1.6.21

The existing Portfile for FXRuby works by downloading the source tarball from RubyForge and then running the install.rb script. In light of the recent changes to the FXRuby build process and the impending doom of RubyForge, we need to update this Portfile accordingly. The best case would be that they (the MacPorts team) have some mechanism already in place that's sensitive RubyGems.

FXRuby is a library for developing powerful and sophisticated cross-platform graphical user interfaces (GUIs) for your Ruby applications. It’s based on the FOX Toolkit, a popular open source C++ library developed by Jeroen van der Zijp. What that means for you as an application developer is that you’re able to write code in the Ruby programming language that you already know and love, while at the same time taking advantage of the performance and functionality of a featureful, highly optimized C++ toolkit.
