Hi Sergio,

I have only been able to test on x86_64 CentOS5.4. The first issue I ran into with the 1.9 spec was the prefix on the binaries (some scripts look for /usr/bin/ruby vs ruby19), which was easy to change in the spec and rebuild. Aftwerwards, gem installing chef would berak, I don't remember the specific error (apologies). I did not have too much time to attempt reproducing the issues.

Sure, no problem. Thank you for the comments.

RBEL ruby19 RPM was designed to be installed in parallel to 1.8 so we don't break stuff. Unfortunately, it's not documented and we don't have an 'update-alternatives' mechanism to switch between ruby implementations easily. We are not there yet. My apologies.

I'll be stressing the RBEL Chef/Ruby packages soon. I'll let you know if I can find something about the segfaulting issues.

Rgds.

Thanks,

Mark

The ruby 1.8.7 install was built by tweaking the centos spec file. For 1.9, this was the specfile used:
https://github.com/imeyer/ruby-1.9.2-rpm/blob/master/ruby19.spec
This spec file provides everything in 1 rpm, vs splitting them all. I had tried using FrameOS's rpms from the rbel repo (http://rbel.frameos.org/), but they were somewhat broken (I should say just their 1.9 seemed to be missing some dependencies, the 1.8.7 packages are fine).

Hi Mark, Sergio from RBEL here.

ruby19 i386 is broken right now but x86_64 should install fine in a clean CentOS.

About the segfault you are getting, does it happen also in i386 CentOS? ruby 1.8.7 p334 is also in rbel5 i386 repo.

Could you please send me the output from "rpm -qi ruby"?

I'm also trying to reproduce the segfault here.

Thanks!

Mark, did you have a chance to test the ruby package in a CentOS 5.5 box? Wondering if rebuilding under CentOS 5.6 will fix something...

Rgds.

Was the Ruby 1.8.7p334 installation you were using from the original
CentOS 5.6 RPM installation?

How did you install Ruby 1.9.2? If from RPMs, where did you get them from?
