It seems like RubyGems 0.9.5 depends on SSL now. I'm not sure if this is a late change after we confirmed it's working, or if when we confirmed it was working we had the jruby-openssl gem installed. Either way, we've got a bit of a chicken and egg problem now:

~/NetBeansProjects/jruby $ gem install jruby-openssl
ERROR:  While executing gem ... (Gem::Exception)
    SSL is not installed on this system

I've copied Eric on this to see if he has any suggestions or can explain why RubyGems can't install anything without SSL installed now. For you on the dev list, I'm open to suggestions.

For the record, the reason we don't ship with Ola's OpenSSL port is twofold:

- it's a crapload of code we didn't want to saddle every release with
- it includes strong encryption, and because of US export laws we want to avoid shipping it with JRuby

So. What to do?

Happy Thanksgiving.
