This is a HUGE feature. The main problem here is how to glue all dependencies for RuGUI and package them into one .deb file for example.

Some things needed:

  • A rake task to build a tar.gz with the application.
  • A rake task to build a .deb with the application.
  • A rake task to install the application into the system (maybe with a ruguispec similar to a gemspec)
  • Most desktop applications installed in Linux splits its files over different folders (/usr/share, /usr/bin, etc). How could a RuGUI application be splitted like that?
  • Check if we could just depend on ruby and rubygems .deb package, and how could we install gems after the application is installed

More may be needed, just putting here what I remembered to document it.
