Category: `gem install` command Group: None Status: Open >Resolution: Accepted Priority: 3 Submitted By: Nick Klauer (klauern) >Assigned to: Ryan Davis (zenspider) Summary: with multiple sources, if one is unavailable, nothing works at all Initial Comment: With the Amazon outage, one of the sources I had added outside of rubygems was down (http://rubygems.torquebox.org). For me, this wasn't a big issue, since it hosts only a few gems that I use and I don't need updated that often. However, when trying to install a gem or update gems, it would shut down entirely, not being able to find specs.4.8.gz for that one source. So in effect, `gem update` was borked because one source wasn't available, regardless of the status of all others. If possible, can this just display a warning or something saying that "can't search ${borked gem server source}, skipping this one" and still try to update, install, etc., from any and all other sources listed? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: http://rubyforge.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=575&aid=29170&group_id=126 _______________________________________________ Rubygems-developers mailing list http://rubyforge.org/projects/rubygems Rubygems-developers@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rubygems-developers
