Hello Ruby.-List,
just a question: Is it possible to define a command for automatic
execution after the user has installed a gem with gem install xyz?
I haven't read about this possibility. But maybe there is a tweak in the
gemspec.
Greetings Sascha

Considering that sometimes the gem install xyz is preceded with a sudo I
hope not :(
Hello Sascha,

there is a `Gem.post_install_hooks` [1]. However, I don't know whether this is
something that can be defined from a gemspec. HTH.
Scary to think that there would be a way to run an arbitrary command, but come
to think of it, there's plenty of room for that with any software
build/distribution method.

I have not tested this, but I’ve read that here on Ruby-Talk ages ago...

Hi Qunitus,

I'm thinking the use of post-install message should be the right for
this job.
