David and List,

I am trying to install cft on a test centos-4.4 (i386) server, using 
David's yum repo..

Error: Missing Dependency: ruby(abi) = 1.8 is needed by package cft

Since ruby(abi) is not available for RHEL4, can you exclude it from the 
'Requires'? here is small patch to fix the spec file.
