only suggest that every question about what interpreter and gems be answered
by being the first distro to be come by default as a system wide rvm based
setup. rvm would answer about every discussion around "how to do it". I've
been using rvm on my systems for quite some time and have had little to no
problem. With a system wide rvm setup, we could effectively drop support for
a lot of gem rpms and focus on making the upstream ruby a lot better.
I only
started using rvm recently, and therefore can't comment on how
primetime ready it is. But given all the benefits it's say it's definitely
worth checking.
If we can have a stable and usable system-wide rvm (and iron-out some
minor quirks for certain popular gems) or similar setup, it could be a good
stride towards making Ruby a first-class citizen in Fedora and making
Fedora a very likeable distro choice for Ruby community.
It would certainly add to some confusion, and out of the box we'd want to
deploy some basic tools and perhaps 1.8.7, but I really think it would mean
a lot for ruby (a comfy path away from 1.8.x) and fedora in general to use a
system-wide rvm approach.
Objections?
I'm not saying that it has to be rvm and only rvm, but the idea
sounds neat.
There would be some packaging changes necessary if we are to achieve a
rvm or any other good multi-ruby env.
+1 from me for the idea of system-wide rvm/multi-ruby env
