I need lessc with --compress option to build bootstrap framework.
I'm
not sure if "less" gem is appropriate for this task, but I wanted to
try it.
The canonical version of lessc is written for node.js. Looks like the
ruby gem just runs that through some sort of node/v8 interpreter for
Ruby. It's probably a lot easier just to run it through node itself.
I build node packages personally for now until I can whip it into
shape for Fedora (which will be F18 or Node v0.8, whichever comes
last. I have patches for the 0.7 development branch almost ready to
send upstream :-):
http://nodejs.tchol.org/
Enable the repository, then just `yum install nodejs-compat-symlinks
npm` and `npm install -g less`.
(You can also rebuild the SRPMs if you don't trust me, but then you
still have the whole "building V8" problem. ;-)
