Retired "rubygems" package

[Vít Ondruch]

Hi all,

The independent "rubygems" package was retired, because it FTBFS already
for some while:

https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/rubygems/c/366607586d95b505277165fce54...

Now I wonder, do we care? Should I unretire it while there is a chance
to do it without review or we don't care and we are fine with the
bundled version shipped in Ruby? Obviously if I was convinced we really
need it, I'd did that without asking. So what are your opinions?

I do not think that someone is using the independent "rubygems" package.
It's a legacy of old Ruby that does not bundle rubygem in it.
But I like that if you want to retire this kind of key package, just
share us what you will do on this mailing-list, before your work to
retire.
Then I am fine.

Resurrecting this thread after long time.

I have unretired the package indeed. But it was lying around without
actual fixes. But fear not, this is about to change. Here is my PR:

https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/rubygems/pull-request/2

and scratch build:

https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=44453070

But be careful, I have not tested this at all, except that it builds.

I've started rebuild on top of it:

https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/pvalena/rubygems-testing/builds/

So far it seems all've build fine (actionview failure is unrelated).

Pavel
