Where is the 2.7.3 and greater version of the MySQL gem for  
non-Windows installs?

It seems to be developed by the guy who has [tmtm.org](http://tmtm.org)

I checked his site at [MySQL/Ruby](http://tmtm.org/en/mysql/ruby/), and the latest  
version is 2.7.3, but there is no Linux version available via the  
mirrors.

Any of you guys get mysql offered as a gem update, but the only newer  
versions available are for Windows?

Has upstream development on this died? I tried emailing the author,  
but I don’t speak Japanese.

Cheers,
