In Ruby 3.1 net/smtp is distributed as bundled gem. On the other hand,
our ruby ports (lang/rubyXY) don't include bundled gems in their
packages and it also applies to lang/ruby31. That means net/smtp isn't
include in the package of Ruby 3.1. So add mail/rubygem-net-smtp to
RUN_DEPENDS so this port works fine with Ruby 3.1.
I'm not in favor doing it this way.
If you go to:
https://rubygems.org/gems/mail
The dependency is not listed.
I think doing it this way, will will run into many runtime problems.
I think it would be better to install rubyXY in a way that expected
packages are existing.
In my opinion we should add the runtime deps to the rubyXY port and remove
these patches from the ports like mail/rubygem-mail.
The next person that will upgrade mail to e.g. 2.7.2 will check
https://rubygems.org/gems/mail
and will remove the dependency to mail/rubygem-net-smtp again.
I think this will end in a nightmare managing the dependencies correctly.
Any comments?
