ruby186 does not build against openssl 1.0.0a

[polek@…]

Attempting to upgrade/build ruby186 results in following error:

:info:build ossl.c:118: error: syntax error before '*' token

This is important because plenty of Rails apps still run on ruby 1.8.6 an servers, and it is good to have same version of ruby on developers machine.

Please remember to fill in the Port field and cc the maintainer.

this problem was fixed at r69720, port:ruby186-p399_0.

thanks for your report.

ruby186-p399 still does not build, although this time error is different (look like patch does not apply cleanly)

Sorry! I've missed to test on Leopard.

I solved this problem at r70033. Please try the latest Portfile.

Thank you! It works flawlessly for me once again.
