Please note that this is a work in progress that hasn't been tested yet.

[x] directory structure
[x] initd support
[x] post install & pre remove scripts
[x] ~~package the rack gem~~ depend on the ruby rack package
[x] RPM dependencies (at least for Fedora)
[ ] test the built DEB on Debian / Ubuntu: prax_0.9.0_amd64.deb
[ ] test the built RPM on Fedora / CentOS

Hmmm, seeing as prax needs Ruby, Rake, and its dependencies, I recommend using omnibus to package it all up into a debian package (sorry if I recommended fpm earlier, forgot about these dependencies :))

Vagrant and Chef also use omnibus to package themselves.

There is only one gem, and I don't need a particular version. I just miss a dependency on ruby-rack along with ruby-interpreter for debs; ruby and rubygem-rack for rpms. And the packages would be good to go.

But I'm not against a PR for Omnibus :smiley:

Yeah, my main concern is with some systems which for some reason cannot have their distro's Ruby and/or Rake packages installed. But I guess if folks are using rbenv/chruby properly the rubies and gems they actually care about should be able to live alongside their system packages...
