Issue #1597 has been updated by Ben Lavender. Affected version changed from 0.24.4 to 0.25.4
I am having trouble related to this with 0.25.4. In particular, booting up our EC2 nodes, we can shave 10 minutes off a boot time by adding --no-rdoc and --no-ri with a hacked copy of the gem provider distributed as a custom one. It looks like you were working towards some more features here than just --no-rdoc and --no-ri, but I think that these two should perhaps be the default anyway. Would you merge any of the following if I wrote them up with specs? 1. A fix to the gem provider that adds --no-rdoc and --no-ri to all installations 1. A fix to the gem provider that does all of the above-described fun with --source 1. Some other design that's been decided on somewhere ---------------------------------------- Bug #1597: managing gems with Package does not allow arguments http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/1597 Author: Ed Greenberg Status: Accepted Priority: Normal Assigned to: Category: package Target version: unplanned Affected version: 0.25.4 Keywords: Branch: When managing a gem with Package, one cannot set arguments. For instance one cannot do: gem install mysql -- --with-mysql-config=/usr/bin/mysql_config One cannot add --no-rdoc and --no-ri, nor can one add --source in order to get a gem from github. I realize I can install gems using Exec, but that is just installing them, not managing them. If there is agreement, perhaps this could find itself into a future release. </edg> -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
