debian ruby-dev for 1.8?

[Bob Sidebotham]

Is there a debian package for ruby 1.8 that's equivalent to the ruby-dev
package for 1.6? I can't find it. I get:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
ruby-dev: Depends: libruby (= 1.6.7-3woody3) but 1.8.1-8 is to be
installed
E: Broken packages

What I actually need is a version of mkmf.rb. Given that there doesn't
seem to be a package including this, what's the "right" way to lift it
from the ruby 1.8 distribution and install it? Of course, there may be
other files, too, that are included in ruby-dev that should be installed...

Thanks,
Bob

ruby1.8-dev ?

ruby1.8-dev ?

Umm. Yes. That works. I had searched for mkmf.rb on packages.debian.org,
but I didn't notice I was only searching stable...

Thank you!
