[ANN] rubygems-update 1.8.0

From: Eric Hodel <drbrain@...7.net>
Date: 2011-05-04 21:40:12 UTC
List: ruby-talk #382671
rubygems-update version 1.8.0 has been released!

* <http://rubygems.org>
* <http://docs.rubygems.org>
* <http://help.rubygems.org>
* <http://github.com/rubygems>
* <http://rubyforge.org/projects/rubygems>

RubyGems is a package management framework for Ruby.

This gem is an update for the RubyGems software. You must have an
installation of RubyGems before this update can be applied.

See Gem for information on RubyGems (or `ri Gem`)

To upgrade to the latest RubyGems, run:

  $ gem update --system  # you might need to be an administrator or root

See UPGRADING.rdoc for more details and alternative instructions.

-----

If you don't have RubyGems installed, your can still do it manually:

* Download from: https://rubygems.org/pages/download
* Unpack into a directory and cd there
* Install with: ruby setup.rb  # you may need admin/root privilege

For more details and other options, see:

  ruby setup.rb --help

=== 1.8.0 / 2011-04-34

This release focused on properly encapsulating functionality.  Most of this
work focused on moving functionality out of Gem::SourceIndex and
Gem::GemPathSearcher into Gem::Specification where it belongs.

After installing RubyGems 1.8.0 you will see deprecations when loading your
exsting gems.  Run `gem pristine --all --no-extensions` to regenerate your
gem specifications safely.

Currently RubyGems does not save the build arguments used to build gems with
extensions.  You will need to run `gem pristine gem_with_extension --
--build-arg` to regenerate a gem with an extension where it requires special
build arguments.

http://blog.zenspider.com/2011/05/rubygems-18-is-coming.html

  * Added Dependency#to_spec
  * Added Gem.pre_reset_hook/s and post_reset_hook/s.
  * Added GemCommand.reset to reinitialize the singleton
  * Added Specification#activate.
  * Added Specification#activated, activated=, and activated?

  * Added Specification#gem_dir and gems_dir.
  * Added Specification#spec_dir and spec_file.
  * Added Specification.add_spec, add_specs, and remove_spec.

    minitest.
  * Gem.sources no longer tries to load sources gem. Only uses default_sources.
  * Installer no longer accepts a source_index option.
  * More low-level integration.
  * Removed Gem::FileOperations since it is a dummy class
  * Removed a comment because I am dumb
  * Removed pkgs/sources/lib/sources.rb
  * Revamped indexer to mostly not use SourceIndex (legacy index requires it).
  * Rewrote our last functional test suite to be happy and fast
  * RubyGems is now under the Ruby License or the MIT license
  * Specification#== now only checks name, version, and platform.
  * Specification#authors= now forcefully flattens contents (bad rspec! no
    cookie!)
  * Specification#eql? checks all fields.
  * Specification#installation_path no longer raises if it hasn't been
    activated.
  * Specification#validate now ensures that authors is not empty.
  * TestCase.util_setup_spec_fetcher no longer returns a SourceIndex.
  * Uninstaller no longer passes around SourceIndex instances
  * Warn on loading bad spec array values (ntlm-http gem has nil in its cert
    chain)
  * `gem pristine` now accepts --no-executables to skip restoring gems with
    extensions.
  * `gem pristine` can now restore multiple gems.

* 6 bug fixes:

  * DependencyInstaller passed around a source_index instance but used
    Gem.source_index.
  * Fixed Platform#== and #hash so instances may be used as hash keys.
  * Fixed broken Specification#original_platform. It should never be nil.
  * Gem::Text#format_text now strips trailing whitespace
  * Normalize LOAD_PATH with File.expand_path
  * `gem build` errors should exit 1.
  * `gem pristine` can now restore non-latest gems where the cached gem was
    removed.
