Hello, after a lot of work and some wrong avenues we are finally ready to update Ruby in Arch Linux to version 3.2.4. For this we will block staging from tomorrow (09.05.2024) on to do the rebuild, and it might take some time to complete. At the same time we also replace the approach of providing an /etc/gemrc with the more up-to-date approach of providing an operating_system.rb for ruby to rely on. This should solve several issues currently open for the ruby and the rubygems package. We know that Ruby 3.2.4 isn’t the latest version but we decided to do this one and maybe in a couple of months update to ruby 3.3.x once we are sure it is ready. During the update we will also drop some ruby default gem packages which are not needed anymore as we will not de-vendor all ruby defaultgems in the future. There might arise some dependency issues but we will have to face them when we see them. Best regards Segaja

Hello,

Hello, after some effort we finally managed to rebuild all relevant ruby packages against ruby 3.2.4 and have just pushed these to [extra-testing]. Please try them out and let us know if you have any issues. There are some gnome related ruby packages which don't rebuild against ruby 3.2.4 and which have a dead upstream. I informed Anatol about them weeks ago but got no reaction so we will drop them to AUR when the move to the stable repos happens. If we don't see any major problems within the next week we will move all of this to the stable repositories on Friday, 09.08.2024 around 17 o'clock CEST. Best regards Segaja

Hello, the move has happened and ruby in the stable repositories was now updated to 3.2.4. Please give us some time to cleanup open gitlab issues and merge request. Also we know this is not the latest ruby version, but we plan to update further in the next few month. Thanks for everyone who helped in getting this major update finally through. Best regards Segaja
