Takuya Noguchi requested to merge docs-ruby1.8 into master

What does this MR do?

Removes the instruction for Ruby version for Ruby 1.9 era from the docs. That should be removed after %11.7 (2019-01-22).

Debian

Debian 7 (wheezy) (which reached EOL by 2018-05) included ruby1.8 package according to https://wiki.debian.org/Ruby, and Debian 8 (jessie), which was also deprecated from the supported OS of GitLab, dropped it.

Ubuntu

Ubuntu 14.04 did not include ruby1.8 package as it had ruby1.9.1 by default, while Ubuntu 12.04 (which reached EOL by 2017-04) did not include ruby1.8 package as it had ruby1.9.1 by default.

Author's checklist (required)

When applicable:

Review checklist

All reviewers can help ensure accuracy, clarity, completeness, and adherence to the Documentation Guidelines and Style Guide.

1. Primary Reviewer

  • Review by a code reviewer or other selected colleague to confirm accuracy, clarity, and completeness. This can be skipped for minor fixes without substantive content changes.

2. Technical Writer

  • Technical writer review. If not requested for this MR, must be scheduled post-merge. To request for this MR, assign the writer listed for the applicable DevOps stage.

For more information about labels, see Technical Writing workflows - Labels.

For suggestions that you are confident don't need to be reviewed, change them locally and push a commit directly to save others from unneeded reviews. For example:

  • Clear typos, like this is a typpo.
  • Minor issues, like single quotes instead of double quotes, Oxford commas, and periods.

For more information, see our documentation on Merging a merge request.

3. Maintainer

  1. Review by assigned maintainer, who can always request/require the above reviews. Maintainer's review can occur before or after a technical writer review.
  2. Ensure a release milestone is set.
  3. If there has not been a technical writer review, create an issue for one using the Doc Review template.
