Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 3 Submitted By: Martin Tepper (mgpalmer) Assigned to: Nobody (None) Summary: Can't upgrade to newer rubygems version with explicit version number Initial Comment: Hi everybody ! I've already briefly explained the problem here: http://help.rubygems.org/discussions/problems/514-cant-upgrade-to-newer-rubygems-version-with-explicit-version-number Basically, upgrading rubygems to a specific, higher-than-now version (or the latest version) doesn't work as it is. You can workaround by installing rubygems-update manually, but I think it's quite unobvious why you can't just tell the target version and be done with it. I've poked around in the code and found a solution. Here's my take on it: https://github.com/MGPalmer/rubygems/commit/a1bd03cd597a3a0fc1d13059c582ac7266c34fb8 I haven't really contributed to a project before like this, is there anything else I need to do ? Run tests etc. ? Thanks for all your work on the ruby ecosystem !
