  1. Re:Aptitude on LinRails — Ruby On Rails For Linux · · Score: 2, Insightful

    If you want to get asked questions while installing with apt just
    dpkg-reconfigure debconf
    and set the priority to low.

    Anyway, packages are separated so if you just want the main package for example:
    aptitude install ruby
    If you want more then:
    aptitude install ruby ruby-prof rubygems etc

    maybe even better:
    aptitude --with-recommends install ruby.
