Category: #gem and #require methods Group: None >Status: Closed Resolution: None Priority: 1 Submitted By: Rob Sanheim (rsanheim) Assigned to: Eric Hodel (drbrain) Summary: Rubygems 1.3.5 and Ruby 1.9 breaks hard after require 'rubygems/specification' Initial Comment: Please see the repo: http://github.com/rsanheim/ruby19_rubygems_bug/tree/master The build is here: http://runcoderun.com/rsanheim/ruby19_rubygems_bug The failing build on Ruby 1.9.1 p243: http://runcoderun.com/rsanheim/ruby19_rubygems_bug http://runcoderun.com/rsanheim/ruby19_rubygems_bug/builds/09a9f683fe7848980e10ac7bd2291040ec11ea17/1/ruby_191 Here is the simplest code to illustrate: require 'hoe' gem 'hoe' # these should work puts "about to break 'gem'" require 'rubygems/specification' gem 'hoe' # exception thrown here when it shouldn't be ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Ryan Davis (zenspider) Date: 2010-11-12 14:46 Message: This ticket has been deemed stale and we're closing it in order to catch up with our ticket list. If you think it is still valid, please reopen. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Hedge Hog (hedgehog) Date: 2010-05-09 01:23 Message: OK, disregard last comment. Some other gems need to be installed. Recommended workaround is as mentioned before: Remove require 'rubygems/specification' So far I have not seen any adverse side effects. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Hedge Hog (hedgehog) Date: 2010-05-08 21:23 Message: Why I'm not yet sure but it is called after rake/gempackagetask. Specifically: require 'rubygems' require 'rake/gempackagetask' require 'rubygems/specification' If I comment out the require 'rubygems/specification' I still get a failure: http://www.pastie.org/952149 I'm yet to get my head around how/why Chef has to use this sequence.... they may not be alone. It is still a useful example of a reproducible case that is minimal: $ gem list --local *** LOCAL GEMS *** rake (0.8.7) rdoc (2.5.8) HTH? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Eric Hodel (drbrain) Date: 2010-05-04 13:26 Message: Why are you requiring rubygems/specification? require 'rubygems' provides it for you. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Hedge Hog (hedgehog) Date: 2010-05-03 22:49 Message: The following is a minimal rvm example, the `rake -T` command triggers the issue here too: bash < <( curl http://rvm.beginrescueend.com/releases/rvm-install-head ) cat >~/.bash_profile <<EOT source ~/.bashrc export LC_ALL=en_US.utf8 export LANGUAGE=en_US.utf8 export LANG=en_US.utf8 if [[ -s ~/.rvm/scripts/rvm ]] ; then source ~/.rvm/scripts/rvm ; fi EOT source ~/.bash_profile rvm install 1.9.1 pushd ~/src git clone git://github.com/opscode/mixlib-authentication.git pushd mixlib-authentication rake -T 2>&1|tee /tmp/rake-t-error.log popd popd The rake log is here: http://www.pastie.org/944745 HTH? gem list --local *** LOCAL GEMS *** rake (0.8.7) rdoc (2.5.8) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Hedge Hog (hedgehog) Date: 2010-05-03 21:39 Message: Also affects: ruby 1.9.2dev (2009-07-18 trunk 24186) [x86_64-linux] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Eric Hodel (drbrain) Date: 2010-04-21 20:54 Message: I'm not entirely sure how this is breaking, but require 'rubygems' provides Gem::Specification, so you don't need to require it. The workaround is to not require 'rubygems/specification'. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Ryan Davis (zenspider) Date: 2009-09-11 00:30 Message: We've already tracked down the problem. The workaround as described is to remove your manually installed rubygems from 1.9.x. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Adam Salter (aqsalter) Date: 2009-09-10 23:33 Message: Ryan: Sorry about that. I (too) am working on several projects, busy and wanted to throw in my helpful comments... I find problems can get fixed quicker if the devs know how many people are affected. I misunderstood your initial comment: '0 failures out of 4' sounds like no failures, which could certainly be assumed to be a good thing - except we are trying to track down a problem. +1 biting off a much ruder comment and looking to the future with hope and optimism. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Ryan Davis (zenspider) Date: 2009-09-10 23:08 Message: Please don't +1. That shit is obnoxious. We don't need to test this against jeweler if we have a much cleaner smaller repro that is standalone. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Adam Salter (aqsalter) Date: 2009-09-10 18:47 Message: +1 please fix... Not exactly 'urgent' but annoying. I raised a bug on the 'jeweler' gem because of this: http://github.com/technicalpickles/jeweler/issues#issue/34 I'm sure that the code i provide there: Rakefile: require 'jeweler' rake -T will trigger issue. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Ryan Davis (zenspider) Date: 2009-09-10 13:54 Message: Huh! % sudo gem uninstall rubygems-update % multiruby -rubygems -rrubygems/specification -e 'gem "hoe"' ... TOTAL RESULT = 0 failures out of 4 Passed: 1.9.1-p129, 1.8.7-p72, 1.8.7-p160, 1.8.6-p368 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Ryan Davis (zenspider) Date: 2009-09-10 13:53 Message: Easier repro of the warnings: multiruby -rubygems -rrubygems/specification -e 0 and: multiruby -rubygems -rrubygems/specification -e 'gem "hoe"' ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: http://rubyforge.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=575&aid=27087&group_id=126 _______________________________________________ Rubygems-developers mailing list http://rubyforge.org/projects/rubygems Rubygems-developers@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rubygems-developers
