[augeas-devel] Bumping the ruby version for ruby-augeas

[David Lutterkort]

The question was prompted by PR 6
<https://github.com/hercules-team/ruby-augeas/pull/6> where I tried to
cargo cult building ruby-augeas on OSX from the dotdoom fork - Travis fails
on that change.

For building on OSX, I am inclined to not merge PR 6 and instead document
that you need to use homebrew and then 'brew install augeas pkg-config' to
build ruby-augeas; at least that worked for me. I'd love to hear if that
approach is bad in some way.

For Ruby compat, I think we should stop building against 1.8.7, but still
build against 1.9.3 and add 2.0.0

How does that sound ?
David
