How do I make a DSL file ?I'm not necessarily intrested in feeding it back into the repositary, but I could do with a different ruby.dsl that has later versions of hte standard library & the IRB in it. I've had a look round the board & I couldn't find any help (could be my searching) I'll look forward to an answer Posted by ^thehatsrule^ on July 17 2006,19:40
Please look in the wiki on how to create an extension,( i.e. < http://damnsmalllinux.org/wiki...._Source > ) Posted by anam on July 18 2006,10:20
ThanksNo idea why I couldn't find that, but now I have a much happier ruby setup for the little machine I've been working on Posted by ^thehatsrule^ on July 19 2006,01:03
If you believe your new extension is pretty much stable, you could always submit it for testing.

I am working on a Ruby 1.8.6 extension. I can find all the ruby libs, but it complains about the libc.so.6 library. Is DSL using stripped down libs or Busybox or something. I see something in DSL about upgrading to Gnu utils. Would this help? Any idea of how much space this would take?

It sounds like you are using binaries that were built on something other than DSL. While this works in many cases where the distro has the same or older versions of the most vital libraries, such as libc, many newer distros will be incompatible with DSL. It may be easier to install gcc1-with-libs, and possibly gnu-utils, and compile it on DSL.

That works. Thanks!
