@skwashd Definitely something to be aware of, but nothing that's unique to our Registry. NPM, RubyGems and many other ecosystems have the same exact problem - which isn't to say we (all) can't do a better job about surfacing good quality abstractions.

@mycoliza @vicentebosch Bundler for RubyGems improved upon pip with Gemfile vs Gemfile.lock; RVM for isolation was backported to Python as virtualenv; NPM made sure to have strong isolation from the start. Cargo further improved upon it by learning from the NPM vs Yarn reproducible builds issue.

@josevalim Take care José - you have been an inspiration. The other day, I was browsing through a rubygems issue on github & I was amazed to see how patient you were even when the issue itself wasn't real. Thank you for being the way you are, Elixir ecosystem is kind because you are kind.

@excid3 @afomera Gotcha, so the namespacing is for the same gem to be published to RubyGems but set a scope to use a particular repo for that specific gem. I guess that is only a problem if you’re taking over a gem to publish it’s replacement

First, some background: RubyGems has had reproducible builds for about a year and a half. However, there's one catch: you need to know the value of SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH. I have been wanting to fix that requirement by including the value somewhere in the metadata.

@_solnic_ the last remaining unsolved problem for rubygems UX are C extensions. If anyone could `gem install your_app` and run it without worrying about a C compiler or ruby.h or libsqlite3, that would be awesome.

@eregontp @_jardo_ @tenderlove @schneems @flavorjones So permission denied if you run `gem install rails` but the ruby's gem dir isn't writable? I really hope rubygems makes --user-install the default behavior, or something similar, but that issue is still open. Also, there's still gem sharing issues with Gem.user_dir.

Benoit Daloze @eregontp

Reported 2021-06-05 16:51:41

@postmodern_mod3 @_jardo_ @tenderlove @schneems @flavorjones The default behavior of RubyGems, rbenv has the same behavior for gem paths (just use RubyGems defaults): https://t.co/TerZ1oRCrs

Benoit Daloze @eregontp

Reported 2021-06-05 14:36:29

@tenderlove @_jardo_ @schneems @flavorjones One drawback is if that Ruby prefix is not user-writable then one would need to use `gem install --user-install` or `bundle config path`. It's the same for rbenv, and it seems a non-issue in practice. That should probably be solved in RubyGems anyway (https://t.co/qJcVBWDehf)

Benoit Daloze @eregontp

Reported 2021-06-05 08:46:17

@postmodern_mod3 It is clearly and objectively a chruby 0.3.9 bug to interpret RUBY_VERSION as ABI version. Please don't pretend it's something's else bug if chruby sets incorrect values. Yes, RubyGems could do better but it's irrelevant to fix this bug.

postmodern @postmodern_mod3

Reported 2021-06-05 08:03:46

@eregontp OK, that seems like something we could fix in RubyGems, instead of working around it via chruby. It should be possible to add that extensions/.../.../.../ dir that contains the .so/dylib to $LOAD_PATH, instead of copying the .so/dylib back into lib/.

postmodern @postmodern_mod3

Reported 2021-06-05 07:22:40

@eregontp I also find it unfortunate. However, the SEGV in question was caused by an ABI breakage between two different versions of TruffleRuby and RubyGems not isolating the built C extensions. The PR which you submitted to fix this changed functionality, so it got slated for 1.0.0.

postmodern @postmodern_mod3

Reported 2021-06-05 07:14:41

@eregontp It was the one rubygems issue where you kept pointing out if two rubies of the same version but different ./configuration options tried to load a C extension, then theoretically ABI issues might arise. Also, if you're installing dev code, then your safety is in your own hands.

Benoit Daloze @eregontp

Reported 2021-06-05 06:42:42

@postmodern_mod3 > a design flaw in RubyGems. It might well be. The problem is corner cases like e.g., having a `ruby-dev` Ruby which one later reinstalls with a newer commit, CRuby never changes the master ABI version but might change the ABI. --enable-shared vs not is another case.

postmodern @postmodern_mod3

Reported 2021-06-05 05:55:22

@eregontp That issue is also still open. So is this one https://t.co/xkx0HuIkAS I'd really like to see the RubyGems define consistent behavior for how different types of gems are handled (stdlib gems, global gems, user gems). This would give ruby switchers clear guidelines to work within.

postmodern @postmodern_mod3

Reported 2021-06-04 20:44:55

@eregontp Also the rubygems issue you said you got consensus on is _still_ open. The maintainers still have not clarified whether the --user-install directory is designed to support gems installed from multiple rubies, or a single ruby. https://t.co/CIqEhWE6UM
