Cannot install on Debian 8

[jdutriaux]

Hi,

It seems that Ruby 1.8 is not available on Debian 8 😞. (Or I don't see how to install it, I can only install 2.1 version.)

It will be awesome to make the panel compatible with newer versions of ruby.

Thanks,
Halfman.

have you tried apt-get install ruby1.8

otherwise do it like this:
wget http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/r/ruby1.8/ruby1.8_1.8.7.358-7.1+deb7u3_amd64.deb
wget http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/r/ruby1.8/libruby1.8_1.8.7.358-7.1+deb7u3_amd64.deb
dpkg -i libruby1.8_1.8.7.358-7.1+deb7u3_amd64.deb
dpkg -i ruby1.8_1.8.7.358-7.1+deb7u3_amd64.deb
apt-get -f install

Hi @lug-gh, thanks for the answer but after nearly one year this issue is not really relevant anymore :(. And it seems that the package you sent is not compatible with Debian 8.

I finally ended by using another web panel.

Just a note about Ruby 1.8 : It is deprecated since Oct. 2011 and no longer maintained since June 2013. 😉
