librrd

Description

This gem includes the RRDtool Ruby bindings from the RRDtool sources. It should help people that are unable to use or don't have some kind of librrd-ruby operating system package.

The extconf.rb tries to guess the librrd version installed on your system. If it doesn't work, please try to adjust the ext/librrd/extconf.rb file and submit a pull request or open an issue.

• Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (RRDtool 1.3.8)
