--- Comment #3 from Josef Stribny jstribny@redhat.com ---
From your spec file:
``` # URL: http://blog.vava.cn/ # This URL is mentioned in the Gem but doesn't open URL: https://github.com/janx/chardet ```
The original chardet gem is actually hosted on RubyForge[1] and maintained by Hui Zheng. The release is from 2006 and I don't see any new development or updates here.
The URL you are mentioning belongs to chardet2[2], which is pretty new, it's based on chardet and seems to be maintained.
Apart from that I am unsure whether is chardet Ruby 2.0 ready or not, since I can see that there is a commit regarding Ruby 2.0 compatibility in chardet2[3]. Fedora 19 will use Ruby 2.0 as a default and it would be pointless to package a sort-of dead project that wasn't tested on Ruby 2.0 (although backporting of the above mentioned commit could solve it).
Is there a reason to package this gem? Wouldn't be better to bring chardet2 to Fedora?
