[NTLUG:Discuss] has anyone used Alexandria?

[Kevin Brannen]

I've found a program called Alexandria (for book cataloging) that seems 
like it could be good.  See http://alexandria.rubyforge.org/.  Has 
anyone used it and can comment on what it's like?

Better still, has anyone ever installed it? (preferrably on an Suse 
distro but I'd take stories about it anywhere :-)  It's done in Ruby 
with GTK, so I'm going thru Gnome hell again, trillions of libs with 
interdependencies and no end in sight...sigh.  If so, can you remember 
and comment on what it takes to get it installed and working?

TIA!
