From: Sylvain Joyeux Date: 2010-08-15T19:14:24+09:00 Subject: [ruby-core:31720] [Bug #3607] [trunk/r28731] Gem.path has disappeared? Issue #3607 has been updated by Sylvain Joyeux. Historically, Debian also ships the RubyGems code from rubygems.org in a separate package (and does not ship the code from MRI). Because of that, ruby 1.9 on Debian is currently without any working rubygems. The underlying questions is the following: what should packagers do ? Should they stop tracking the separate rubygems codebase altogether and only ship the rubygems version shipped with Ruby itself (which also would mean lower update rates ...) ? Should they wait for you to update the separate rubygems ? Obviously, even though I am not a Debian packager myself, having to track both seems to be unpractical. The relevant Debian bug report is there: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=588125 ---------------------------------------- http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/show/3607 ---------------------------------------- http://redmine.ruby-lang.org
