Category: `gem install` command Group: None >Status: Closed >Resolution: Rejected Priority: 3 Submitted By: Wincent Colaiuta (wincent) >Assigned to: Eric Hodel (drbrain) Summary: 1.5.0 broken on Ruby 1.8.6 Initial Comment: Initially reported here: http://help.rubygems.org/discussions/problems/477 Pasting that in: Just tested the 1.5.0 release on a couple of Linux boxes and looks like it's not compatible with Ruby 1.8.6. I get this when running sudo gem update --system: ./lib/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in `require': undefined method `end_with?' for "no such file to load -- Win32API":String (NoMethodError) This is on ruby 1.8.6 (2008-08-11 patchlevel 287) [i386-linux]. RubyGems 1.4.2 worked fine. I gather the end_with? method was only added in Ruby 1.8.7 (tested on ruby 1.8.7 (2010-01-10 patchlevel 249) [i686-linux] and it works fine). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Eric Hodel (drbrain) Date: 2011-02-01 11:05 Message: Upgrade your ruby. Ruby 1.8.6 is no longer supported per: http://blog.segment7.net/2010/04/23/ruby-1-8-6-policy I've updated trunk to no longer install on ruby 1.8.6, sorry we forgot that. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: http://rubyforge.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=575&aid=28897&group_id=126 _______________________________________________ Rubygems-developers mailing list http://rubyforge.org/projects/rubygems Rubygems-developers@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rubygems-developers
