> While a thrift gem is currently provided, many prefer to install gems that are encapsulated in an RPM.  This provides deployment consistency with other components of their system.
> Also noticed that a full rpmbuild run (where php is installed on the build machine) would break as it will attempt to install the php files into the system itself (rather than the build-root, requiring elevated permissions)
> Detailed list -
> Support packaging ruby RPM (as a rubygem)
>  + Following convention for packaging gems as RPMs
>    by naming the subpackage as rubygem-thrift
>    https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Ruby?rd=Packaging/Ruby#RubyGems
>  + Includes one obsoletes statement but various builders may have used
>    different names for previously built ruby lib RPMs, so more may
>    need to be added.
>  + Set a local GEM_HOME during build/install stages so that the gems
>    installed during the build will be tossed and no root access will
>    be required for the build
>  + Set RUBYLIB to first search the local (./lib/rb) path to prevent
>    conflicts with other versions of thrift that may be installed on
>    the build machine.
> Support for packaging php RPM
>  + New sub-backage to house the results of "make install" of lib/php
>  + Set PHP_PREFIX in configure to be in the build root
