Ruby 1.9 Incompatibility Gem Hall Of Shame

Thursday, November 20th, 2008

The following gems are shamefully incompatible with Ruby 1.9, which has now been available for testing for almost a year. These are just the ones which have personally affected me; there are bound to be MANY more.

Mongrel
FasterCSV
LibIDN
EventMachine – pure ruby works but is slow

Authors: please fix your gems!

More to come as I think of them. Suggestions welcome.

Ruby 1.9 released!!

Tuesday, December 25th, 2007

See http://www.ruby-lang.org/ja/, it’s not on the English site yet, nor is it tagged in SVN.

Awesome! : )

UPDATE: it’s on the english site now, but still not tagged in SVN.

I wonder what the “best practise” method of upgrading in OSX would be?
