Hello,
This is basically my question, why ruby gems packages always use --force
option during installation?
(from
http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/ruby.git/tree/macros.rubygems)
gem install \\\
-V \\\
--local \\\
--install-dir %{-d*}%{!?-d:.%{gem_dir}} \\\
--bindir .%{_bindir} \\\
*--force \\\*
--document=ri,rdoc \\\
%{-n*}%{!?-n:%{gem_name}-%{version}.gem} \
%{nil}
Thanks for your help

From the help:
$ gem help install
-f, --[no-]force Force gem to install, bypassing
dependency
checks
I.e. "gem install" would try to install also gem's dependencies (which are
not available, since we are offline during build), while the "--force"
option installs just the gem itself. The dependecies have to be satisfied
by BuildRequires instead.
