From: "hsbt (Hiroshi SHIBATA) via ruby-core" Date: 2026-06-16T04:26:20+00:00 Subject: [ruby-core:125779] [Ruby Feature#5617] Allow install RubyGems into dediceted directory Issue #5617 has been updated by hsbt (Hiroshi SHIBATA). Status changed from Assigned to Rejected Closing as rejected for the same reason as #19972. I'd rather keep relying on the default/bundled gems extraction than add and maintain a separate RubyGems install directory. ---------------------------------------- Feature #5617: Allow install RubyGems into dediceted directory https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/5617#change-117692 * Author: vo.x (Vit Ondruch) * Status: Rejected * Assignee: hsbt (Hiroshi SHIBATA) ---------------------------------------- Hello, I would like to propose my patch, which allows to optionally install RubyGems library into dedicated directory, out of the default Ruby directory structure. This should enable to easily share one RubyGems library by more Ruby implementations and avoids code duplication. I did this patch since Fedora prohibits duplication of system libraries [1], which would be the case if MRI and JRuby are installed in parallel. Thank you for considering this patch.
