Ruby 2.4

[Vít Ondruch]

Hi everybody,

Time is running past and it is almost 6 months of development of Ruby
2.4. So I started to prepare some test build again. I am pushing all the
changes into private-ruby-2.4 branch of dist-git if you are interested
and here is the build of r55184:

http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=14278233

One notable change is that XMLRPC library was extracted into separate
gem, so rubygem-xmlrpc is now available as Ruby subpackage.

Please give it a try and let me know if anything goes wrong.

Actually, there are probably more significant changes. Now I remember
that Bignum and Fixnume were merged into Integer if I am not mistaken.
That might break something ...

You can find the necessary changes in private-ruby-2.4 branch of dist
git. And as always, please let me know if you have any comments.

Hi,

I am back with another test build of Ruby 2.4 snapshot, this time
r56029. You can find the sources in private-ruby-2.4 branch in dist-git
and here is the scratch build:

http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=15438057

There are two notable changes. Upstream extracted Tcl/Tk support into
independent gem so did I. You probably want to test that upgrade path
from ruby-tcltk to rubygem-tk works as expected.

Also, upstream extracted OpenSSL into independent gem. So I followed.
ruby package recommends installation of rubygem-openssl and rubygems has
hard dependency on it, so rubygem-openssl should be installed in most of
the cases.

Please let me know if you encounter any issues. Thx.

And one more fast iteration (r56050):

http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=15450242

since upstream fixed some outstanding issues with build of native
extensions of bundled gems.

Hi all,

-preview2 of the Ruby 2.4 [1] was released by upstream and here is the
test build for you (ARM is not finished yet, but I hope it will pass):

http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=15602333

You can find the necessary changes in private-ruby-2.4 branch of dist-git.

When I did the last snapshot, I mentioned, that Tcl/Tk was moved into
gem. But upstream took step further and dropped the Tcl/Tk support from
the Ruby stdlib entirely. The tk gem is the only option now. Hence I
dropped the subpackage as well. The only caveat is that there is not
good place to obsolete this package. I figured out that I place the
obsoletes into ruby-libs to remove the ruby-tcltk package from the
system, but if you have any better idea, please let me know.

Perhaps packaging ruby/tk is the smartest:
https://github.com/ruby/tk

Looks like the git log or so, the above seems to be exactly the replacement
for previously rubylib Tcl/Tk.

If you don't have time, I may try packaging in a week or two weeks.

Mamoru

Yes, it should be drop in replacement as far as I understand it.

If I am not mistaken, there is nothing in Fedora, what would depend on
ruby-tcltk, so for me it is very little priority. Thank you if you are
going to pickup the maintenance.

Sorry for very looooooong delay, however not I've submitted
review request for rubygem-tk:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1409355

I have another review request for rubygem-clutter-gdk :
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1409288

Review swap is welcomed.

Just wondering about the "Obsoletes: ruby-tcltk < 2.4.0". Have you
tested it against the Ruby 2.4? Should I remove the "Obsoleted" from the
ruby-libs?

Well, I have not tried ruby 2.4 yet. And while I think it is better
"Obsoletes: ruby-tcltk" is on rubygem-tk (as rubygem-tk is the replacement
for current ruby-tcltk), it can be on ruby-libs: either will be okay, perhaps.

Hi all,

Here is another test build. This time it is r56256:

Hi all,

Here is again new development snapshot of Ruby 2.4, this time r56436:

http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=16106776

I did not notice anything special about this, but one noteworthy change
is compilation against OpenSSL 1.1.0. There was one issue [1] with
Fedora OpenSSL, which should be resolved now. But please give it some
testing.

Speaking about OpenSSL, it is interesting if upstream decide to backport
OpenSSL 1.1.0 support into older version of Ruby or not. You can follow
the discussion here [2].

Hi everybody,

Once again, here is development snapshot of Ruby 2.4, this time r56664

http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=16334921

I have not noticed anything interesting in particular. The only
interesting thing probably is that PPC was enabled for Rawhide and of
course it caused some issues. Some of them were already fixed upstream,
some are waiting for the fix. Please give it a try and as always, any
feedback is welcome.

Hi Rubyists,

You probably noticed, that Ruby 2.4.0-preview3 was released yesterday
[1]. But since the preview was of r56661 and my last build from r56664,
there is no point to prepare package of -preview3.

Nevertheless, since the development continues, there is already r56693
available upstream and I made testing build for this release:

http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=16383885

From the upstream POV, I don't think there is anything exciting. But for
me, it is exciting, that I was able to make the test suite pass the
build using "mock --new-chroot". In this case, mock is using
systemd-nspawn on the backround instead of plain chroot (and this might
become default in the future). This uncovered several shortcomings of
the test suite and some of them are already fixed upstream.

If you have any feedback, don't hesitate and let me know.

Here is yet another snapshot build of Ruby 2.4, this time r56948:

http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=16692858

Ruby 2.4.0-rc1

[Vít Ondruch]

Hi Rubyists,

Ruby 2.4 development is finishing and yesterday, there was release of
Ruby 2.4.1-rc1 [1] and here is the scratch build for your testing:

https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=16864157

The stable Ruby 2.4.0 release is scheduled at
2016-12-25T00:00:00/03:00:00 according to release engineering ticket [2].

Since I got only positive feedback and no complains about my pre-release
macros support proposal [3]. These macros are included in this scratch
build. I will likely backport them into stable releases later, when
there will be some updates necessary.

As always, please let me know if you encounter any issues. Thx.

This is the latest build of snapshot of Ruby 2.4 prior its official

Ruby 2.4.0

[Vít Ondruch]

Hello everybody,

You have probably noticed, that Ruby 2.4.0 was released over the
Christmas [1]. So here is the scratch build:

https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=17147903

Please give it try and report any issues you might encounter. In other
case, as soon as the Ruby 2.4 change is approved by FESCo, this will be
merged back into master.

If anybody wonders, why I did not reset the release back to -1, it is
due to rubygem-net-telnet, which was not update during this release. So
better to stay on the safe side with the higher release.
