Description David Walser 2016-02-05 17:51:41 CET
We dropped ruby on rails before Mageia 5 due to the inability to maintain it (and it wasn't working either IIRC).  One of the packages from it has been reintroduced into Cauldron by Thomas Spuhler, and the reason is not apparent.  Nothing currently Requires or BuildRequires it.

Speaking of which, see http://weblog.rubyonrails.org/2016/1/25/Rails-5-0-0-beta1-1-4-2-5-1-4-1-14-1-3-2-22-1-and-rails-html-sanitizer-1-0-3-have-been-released/  (it should be updated to 4.2.5.1 if there's some reason to keep it)

Why haven't you dropped the package?  Why do we still have it?

Package was in fact not needed and was dropped.  Marking as FIXED.
