Rails stack update in EL5
by Michael Stahnke
After a very long period of neglect, (sorry), I worked on updating the
rails stack in EPEL5 to 2.3.18. This includes activesupport, activerecord
and actionpack thus far. Rails still to come.
Moving from 2.1.x to 2.3.x *should* be a clean upgrade, but I know in some
cases it's not, as some security fixes required minor behavioral changes.
I'd appreciate karma and feedback here if anybody is still using this old
stack on EPEL5.
