Ruby 2.2
by Vít Ondruch 22 Sep '23

22 Sep '23

Hi everybody, Since Ruby 2.2 is going to be released during Christmas and -preview1 release is imminent (this Wednesday?), it is probably time to start looking into its packaging. So here is the updated .spec file [1] and scratch build [2], which can be finally build on all platforms. Sorry, no Copr for you, since Ruby's build fails there due to old RHEL kernel :/. What has changed from packaging point of view? Luckily, not much, but here are a few bullets which comes to my mind: * RPM 4.12 introduces new %load function, which is used to load RPM macros during RPM build. This allowed to drop my custom RPM macro [3]. On the other hand, you'll be able to build the Ruby only on F21+ (luckily, you should be able to build SRPM everywhere). * The RubyGems filesystem was not explicit enough, so there might be something accidentally packages. This is now more explicit, so we should be safer. * Ruby now ships with MiniTest and Test::Unit. The very good news is that they are installed so far as a regular gems. This means that you have to always specify them in your Gemfile, if you are using Bundler, but this is generally step in good direction. I hope that upstream will not change their mind :) Due to this change, we have new subpackages rubygem-test-unit (and rubygem-power_assert, which is now Test::Unit's dependency). No more %{_bindir}/testrb (but nobody is using it these days anyway, right? ;) * Some prevailing test failures were resolved, some others introduced, but hopefully they'll get resolved prior stable release. Generally, I'd say that not much has changed since 2.1, which is good news. Please test the packaging if you can and let me know about any issues you encountered. Also, if you have any other suggestions about Ruby packaging in general, what we could improve etc, this is probably good time to share. It seems that OpenSUSE guys are improving their packaging, so you might want to get some inspiration there [4, 5, 6] ;) Vít [1] http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/ruby.git/log/?h=private-ruby-2.2 [2] http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=7578843 [3] http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/ruby.git/commit/?h=private-ruby-2.2&id=8… [4] https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:darix:ruby/ruby-common [5] https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:darix:ruby/ruby2.2 [6] https://github.com/openSUSE/gem2rpm/commits/master

BASH completion for Ruby
by Vít Ondruch 25 May '16

25 May '16

Hi guys, Anybody have any experience with some scripts for bash completion? Have you tried any? Should we integrate any? Just a quick googling gave me two results: https://github.com/mernen/completion-ruby https://github.com/pdkl95/rubygems-completion And there are probably others. I did not tried them yet. Have you? Do you have other/better tips? Thank you Vit

Ruby 2.3
by Vít Ondruch 23 Dec '15

23 Dec '15

Hi everybody, I needed to check something in development version of Ruby today, so it was good opportunity to prepare updated package with the latest bits. I'll keep updating the sources in dist git private branch [1]. This should be the scratch build (if it succeeds): http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=8810288 As always, let me know if you encounter any issues.

dnf, jruby, and mock
by Ken Dreyer 22 Jul '15

22 Jul '15

mock with dnf pulls in jruby to satisfy "Requires: ruby(release)" on Rawhide. I've found that several (all?) of my local Rawhide mock builds fail due to jruby issues. This makes maintaining gem packages pretty tedious, and breaks fedora-review runs, etc. Can we remove the "Provides: ruby(release)" from Fedora's jruby in F23? That seems like it would be easier than switching all rubygem packages that FTBFS to "Require: ruby-mri", and besides, it often it is not my noarch gem itself that breaks with jruby, but some other build dependency somewhere in the chain. I think it makes sense to just remove the virtual provide from jruby until jruby is more stable. - Ken

Changes to @rubyonrails group in comps
by Josef Stribny 26 Jun '15

26 Jun '15

Hi all, I would love to update the comps files for f23 regarding the @rubyonrails group. I believe that this group needs to include the new Rails default gems and drop opinionated dependencies such as rubygem-passenger. All changes are included as an attachment. I hope this will allow us to promote this group as a default way of Ruby on Rails installation on Fedora. If you are not against this change, I will push the changes next week. If you have time, please review. Best Regards Josef

Orphaning rubygem-{rack-mount,regin}
by Vít Ondruch 26 Jun '15

26 Jun '15

Hi all, rubygem-rack-mount and rubygem-regin were originally used by Ruby on Rails for routing, but they were later replaced by rubygem-journey in RoR 3.2, which in turn is now integrated in rails. As both of them are abandoned upstream, the source code is no more available in its original location and they failed to pass mass rebuild, I believe it is about time to let them fade away in Fedora, therefore I orphaned them in Rawhide.

updating rails in epel to 4.x
by Mo Morsi 15 Jun '15

15 Jun '15

I've done some investigation as to updating rails in EPEL to the latest release (4.2.1). As part of this I've been refactoring polisher [1] and have written a few new utilities to cross reference upstream / downstream dependencies and output the results in in a tree like manner [2][3] as well as to highlight upstream dependencies missing downstream [4]. The results of the last utility run [5] should give a rough estimate of the work entailed. Dev deps have been included for this run so many updates are duplicate / unecessary. I'll look into consolidating this list and taking some of the simpler updates in the near future, obviously the more eyeballs that we get on this, the quicker it will go. -Mo [1] https://github.com/ManageIQ/polisher [2] https://github.com/ManageIQ/polisher/blob/master/bin/gem_mapper.rb [3] https://mmorsi.fedorapeople.org/gem_mapper.png [4] https://github.com/ManageIQ/polisher/blob/master/bin/missing_deps.rb [5] https://mmorsi.fedorapeople.org/missing_deps_output
