Hello all,
RubyGems 0.6.0 is up:
http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=126
We fixed quite a few reported bugs and added a few nice features:
* Collapse output of --search and --list (and gem_server) operations so that each gem is listed only once, with each of its versions listed on the same line. Example from gem --search:
activerecord (0.7.5, 0.7.6, 0.7.7, 0.7.8)
Implements the ActiveRecord pattern for ORM.
* bin/gem: new --upgrade-all option allows one to upgrade every installed gem
* new #required_ruby_version attribute added to gem specification for specifying a dependency on which version of ruby the gem needs. Format it accepts is the same as the Gem::Version::Requirement format:
spec.required_ruby_version = "> 1.8.0"
* --install-stub defaults to true, so library stubs are created. Can be turned off with --no-install-stub.
We're getting closer and closer to the end of our TODO list, so please do try this latest version and help us smooth out the rough edges. Keep the feature requests coming as well. We've gotten some really good ideas from the community.
Thanks,
Chad
What is RubyGems?
···
-----------------
RubyGems (http://rubygems.rubyforge.org) is an advanced package manager
for Ruby libraries and applications, similar in many ways to the Debian
apt system and to Perl's CPAN module. It expands on these systems in
that it manages library versions and allows you to maintain multiple versions
of the same library (with automated dependency resolution).
