Issue #8800 has been updated by Justin Honold. Status changed from Closed to Re-opened
Could this decision be reconsidered? The Dashboard manual pushes an unpackaged (tarball) installation of a specific, still out-of-date Gem version. What feature of a newer RubyGems installation does Dashboard demand? Like many other 10.04 users I've encountered on the IRC channel, I use stock Ruby, stock RubyGems, and Gem-based Puppet. This keeps me current with Puppet without going outside of official package management channels: debs from Ubuntu, gems from Puppet. A new-RubyGems policy would push me toward using an old Dashboard, not using Dashboard, or manually tinkering with my existing infrastructure. I would likely make a custom RubyGem package, but this is a process that might be repeated by countless other admins. I don't think system-changing tarballs are a good thing to endorse, if it can be reasonably avoided. Can it? Thanks! ---------------------------------------- Bug #8800: 1.2rc5 not working on Ubuntu Lucid 10.04 LTS https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/8800 Author: Justin Honold Status: Re-opened Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: Target version: Keywords: Branch: Affected URL: Affected Dashboard version: 1.2rc7 undefined method `requirement' for #<Rails::GemDependency:0x7f8dbb42dad8> is yielded when running 1.2rc5 with the following software versions - Ruby: ruby 1.8.7 (2010-01-10 patchlevel 249) [x86_64-linux] RubyGems: 1.3.5 If I revert to Dashboard v1.1.1, it works as expected. Based on the error, I'm only guessing that it's Gem-version-related. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
