[Feature Request] Optional No Ruby Dependency while Installing

Open ghost opened this issue 6 years ago • 3 comments

Example

Working Sample: https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=dislocker-noruby

If it can be added into original source it would be helpful for people to use the tool from original source with less dependencies.

Oh hey, I'm the uploader of the dislocker-noruby AUR package ;)

I'm in favor upstreaming this. The current code auto-detects Ruby and doesn't fail without it, but it's nice to have an explicit disable option so that dislocker can be built/packaged on one computer with Ruby, and then installed on another machine without Ruby.

only out of interest... for what the ruby dependency is used? only for the examples?

This was to be used with volatility and dislocker-find (which is a quick ruby script to find dislocker partitions on Linux). Honestly, I haven't tested the volatility part for a while.

I'm also in favor of integrating this patch, it seems like a good idea.
