Ruby 2.2
by Vít Ondruch 22 Sep '23

22 Sep '23

Hi everybody, Since Ruby 2.2 is going to be released during Christmas and -preview1 release is imminent (this Wednesday?), it is probably time to start looking into its packaging. So here is the updated .spec file [1] and scratch build [2], which can be finally build on all platforms. Sorry, no Copr for you, since Ruby's build fails there due to old RHEL kernel :/. What has changed from packaging point of view? Luckily, not much, but here are a few bullets which comes to my mind: * RPM 4.12 introduces new %load function, which is used to load RPM macros during RPM build. This allowed to drop my custom RPM macro [3]. On the other hand, you'll be able to build the Ruby only on F21+ (luckily, you should be able to build SRPM everywhere). * The RubyGems filesystem was not explicit enough, so there might be something accidentally packages. This is now more explicit, so we should be safer. * Ruby now ships with MiniTest and Test::Unit. The very good news is that they are installed so far as a regular gems. This means that you have to always specify them in your Gemfile, if you are using Bundler, but this is generally step in good direction. I hope that upstream will not change their mind :) Due to this change, we have new subpackages rubygem-test-unit (and rubygem-power_assert, which is now Test::Unit's dependency). No more %{_bindir}/testrb (but nobody is using it these days anyway, right? ;) * Some prevailing test failures were resolved, some others introduced, but hopefully they'll get resolved prior stable release. Generally, I'd say that not much has changed since 2.1, which is good news. Please test the packaging if you can and let me know about any issues you encountered. Also, if you have any other suggestions about Ruby packaging in general, what we could improve etc, this is probably good time to share. It seems that OpenSUSE guys are improving their packaging, so you might want to get some inspiration there [4, 5, 6] ;) Vít [1] http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/ruby.git/log/?h=private-ruby-2.2 [2] http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=7578843 [3] http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/ruby.git/commit/?h=private-ruby-2.2&id=8… [4] https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:darix:ruby/ruby-common [5] https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:darix:ruby/ruby2.2 [6] https://github.com/openSUSE/gem2rpm/commits/master

Latest RSpec issues?
by Vít Ondruch 18 Jan '23

18 Jan '23

Dear Mamoru, Could you please check the following two packages which recently started to fail? https://koschei.fedoraproject.org/package/rubygem-webmock?collection=f36 https://koschei.fedoraproject.org/package/rubygem-websocket-extensions?coll… I suspect that this is related to the RSpec update, but the errors are quite strange on the first look: ~~~ 1) WebMock::RequestSignature initialization assigns normalized headers Failure/Error: @headers = WebMock::Util::Headers.normalize_headers(headers) #<WebMock::Util::Headers (class)> received :normalize_headers with unexpected arguments expected: ({"A"=>"a"}) got: ({"A"=>"a"}) # ./lib/webmock/request_signature.rb:25:in `headers=' # ./lib/webmock/request_signature.rb:49:in `assign_options' # ./lib/webmock/request_signature.rb:11:in `initialize' # ./spec/unit/request_signature_spec.rb:23:in `new' # ./spec/unit/request_signature_spec.rb:23:in `block (3 levels) in <top (required)>' # ./lib/webmock/rspec.rb:37:in `block (2 levels) in <top (required)>' ~~~ Thx a lot Vít P.S. Sorry for not being more helpful, I have to spent some time with CentOS Stream 9 to get Ruby into shape there, especially the problematic SystemTap support [1].

rspec 3.11.0 hits rawhide/f36
by Mamoru TASAKA 14 Feb '22

14 Feb '22

Hello, ruby-sig folks: I've upgraded rubygem-rspec (and its friends: rspec-core, rspec-expectations, rspec-mocks, rspec-support) to 3.11.0. Please try using this, thank you. Note that the change Vít previously mentioned (i.e. https://github.com/rspec/rspec-mocks/issues/1460 https://github.com/rspec/rspec-mocks/pull/1394 ) is still in effect. Some rspec usage, espcially using "with" syntax may need updating. Regards, Mamoru

Ruby 3.1 - Mass rebuild
by Vít Ondruch 07 Feb '22

07 Feb '22

Hi, It is time of the year when new version of Ruby was released upstream and we should land it in Fedora. Unfortunately, the change proposal was approved just last Thursday and on top of that, rebase of libffi broke Ruby (I am going to disable the failing test cases for the moment and hope for the best). So this brings us into situation, where won't have enough time prior Fedora Mass rebuild. I have discussed this a bit with relengs and one of the options would be to build Ruby early during the mass rebuild and fix the outfall later. I shared the proposal in the Fedora Mass rebuild ticket [2]. One downside would be that in case of problems, we could not trigger our contingency plan, which is "drop our side tag". But I hope we won't need that. Any thoughts? My fist concern is that maybe we should build more then just Ruby. rubygem-json comes to my mind and possibly rubygem-nokogiri?

Thank you in advance. BTW, for rubygem-simplecov, I've found that rubygem-capybara (so rubygem-selenium-webdriver) BR dependency can easily be removed. Regards, Mamoru

Question about redmine
by Peter Boy 01 Feb '22

01 Feb '22

Hi, we are using redmine as our project management tool and installation and maintenance is a bit cumbersome. Having a Fedora package would make it a lot easier. Has someone already tried to create a Fedora package of Redmine? Or are there specific issues that make it difficult to create a rpm? I'm wondering that no rpm distribution includes a Redmine package. There is a third party package, but it is non-functional. Thanks Peter

rubygem(rake) runtime dependency removed from rubygem-rspec-core
by Mamoru TASAKA 01 Feb '22

01 Feb '22

Hello, ruby-sig folks: With PR: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/rubygem-rspec-core/pull-request/4 I removed rubygem(rake) Requires (when using on koji buildroot) on: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/rubygem-rspec-core/c/15e3de8d5ccf32c7199… Note that some of rubygems related packages becan to fail to rebuild due to this change, especially on %check stage, e.g. * rubygem-rspec-{core,expectations,mocks} * rubygem-cucumber I am going to add "BR: rubygem(rake)" for those packages when I notice such issues, but if you find it, just add "BR: rubygem(rake)" to satisfy dependency. Regards, Mamoru
