From Fedora Project Wiki
This document outlines the steps to get Gitorious into Fedora and EPEL.
High Level Steps and Issues
- Get all Gitorious' dependencies into Fedora.
- Several Rubygems.
- mod_passenger. RHBZ#470696
- Get Gitorious into Fedora.
- Bundled libraries: Gitorious bundles several things, including Rails. Upstream bug for Rails
- Bundler issues: If we use different Gem versions than upstream, Bundler wants to write to Gemfile and Gemfile.lock. We must patch Gemfile
- Init scripts: Create equivalent systemd unit files for Fedora & RHEL 7.
- Ruby version: Upstream master works with Ruby 1.8; verify Ruby 1.9.x compatability. Same for newer rails.
EPEL
- Get all Gitorious's dependencies into EPEL.
- Rails. I don't have experience packaging Rails, and there's been questions about which version to put into EPEL.
- Various Rubygems must be branched for EPEL.
- mod_passenger. RHBZ#470696
- Get Gitorious into EPEL.
- Ruby 1.8
