[DRE-maint] [Bug 670504] [NEW] libinotify-ruby1.9.1 installs into the wrong location

[jh]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: libinotify-ruby

On ia-32 systems, the package libinotify-ruby1.9.1 installs to
/usr/lib/ruby/1.9.1/i486-linux/, and the extension file is not found by
the ruby infrastructure.

It should be installed to /usr/lib/ruby/1.9.1/i686-linux/, in accordance
with the CPU requirements for maverick, and thus recognised by
ruby.1.9.x, e.g.:

$ ruby1.9.1 -v
ruby 1.9.2p0 (2010-08-18 revision 29036) [i686-linux]

If the installed file (inotify.so) is copied for symlinked into the
correct location, /usr/lib/ruby/1.9.1/i686-linux, then it is found and
works correctly, otherwise a 'require' exception is raised.

Please update the package to install in the correct location.
