Ruby 2.2
by Vít Ondruch
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] ;)

ruby-sig FAS group and rubygems build in Copr
by Vít Ondruch
Hi everybody,
You probably noticed, that there is ongoing build of all Python packages
in Copr [1] and today, I was approached by Miroslav Suchý, that he'd
like to do the same for rubygems. And this in turn triggered these
questions:
1) Would you be interested to create ruby-sig group in FAS? We could
make the group owner of some packages and in turn, the members of the
group could maintain the packages, without explicitly asking for some ACLs.
2) For the Copr rebuild of rubygems, there needs to be some FAS group
again. Python guys are asking for "pypi-builds-sig" group [2], hence
following their lead, I'd like to ask for "rubygems-builds-sig" group
(note that although I don't like the '-sig' suffix in this case, it is
mandated by the infrastructure ticket template).
So what are your thoughts?

Major update of hashie? (2.0.5 -> 3.5.5)
by František Dvořák
Hi,
any objection against updating of hashie from 2.0.5 to 3.5.5? I would
update it on rawhide after upcoming Fedora branching (for F27+).
There is no strict reason for it, I just have a software (occi-core),
which claims specific requirement 'hashie >= 3.3.1', but it works fine
with the current version 2.0.5.
Dependencies of hashie are:
rOCCI-server-0:1.1.9-2.fc26.src
rubygem-chef-zero-0:2.2-4.fc26.src
rubygem-occi-core-0:4.3.5-2.fc26.src
rubygem-omniauth-0:1.3.1-2.fc26.src
Only problematic seems to be chef-zero requiring 'hashie < 3'. The
newer version on rubygems requires only 'hashie < 4.0 >= 2.0', so maybe
it is only about relaxing it in the package.

gcc BR
by Vít Ondruch
Hi,
No I feel ashamed that although I was lobbying for gcc BR, I never used
it in my packages. So thank you František for doing so (I assume that
you were forced to do so due to gcc missing in buildroot, right?).
Now I just wonder, wouldn't it be better to add these requires into
ruby-devel? Although one can BR: ruby-devel just because of the macros,
so this would be unnecessary.
So my other idea is to modify gem2rpm to add the requires whenever the
gem has binary extension. There might be false positives as well, but
one should review the otput of gem2rpm, so it is possible to remove the
BR in case it is not required.
Any comments?

[HEADS UP] - rubygem-webmock updated in Rawhide
by Vít Ondruch
Hi all,
Since webmock was FTBFS for a while and update to Ruby 2.4 didn't make
it any better, I decided to bump the webmock from old 1.21.0 release to
version 2.3.2 and honestly, I am not 100% sure what it might break. It
seems that the changes were not that intrusive, but nonetheless some
changes might be required according to the CHANGELOG [1]. This is the
list of possibly affected packages:
rubygem-aws-sdk-core-0:2.3.20-1.fc25.src
rubygem-aws-sdk-resources-0:2.3.20-1.fc25.src
rubygem-coveralls-0:0.8.13-2.fc26.src
rubygem-fog-brightbox-0:0.11.0-1.fc26.src
rubygem-heroku-0:3.41.3-2.fc24.src
rubygem-hipchat-0:1.4.0-2.fc23.src
rubygem-oauth-0:0.4.7-9.fc24.src
rubygem-occi-api-0:4.3.7-1.fc26.src
rubygem-pkgwat-0:0.1.4-9.fc26.src
rubygem-recaptcha-0:3.4.0-1.fc26.src
rubygem-rest-client-0:2.0.0-1.fc25.src
rubygem-webrobots-0:0.1.2-2.fc24.src
vagrant-0:1.8.7-1.fc26.src
Sorry for any inconvenience.

Orphaning rubygem-logging
by Vít Ondruch
Hi,
I just updated and fixed rubygem-logging, but since I have no use for
this package, I just orphaned it in PkgDb. Feel free to pick it up or
let it go away ...
