[SOLVED] ruby-bundler-2.7.2 returns version 2.7.1

I'm currently attempting to build mastodon, but am hitting an issue with ruby-bundler. I have ruby-bundler-2.7.2 installed, but running bundle --version returns 2.7.1 which blows up the mastodon build.

[root@bslxenvy64 tmp]# pacman -U ruby-bundler-2.7.2-1-any.pkg.tar.zst

The running version of Bundler (2.7.1) does not match the version of the specification installed for it (2.7.2). This can be caused by reinstalling Ruby without removing previous

Is there some reason bundle is returning the wrong version???

What does `type -a bundle` show?

[root@bslxenvy64 tmp]# type -a bundle
bundle is /bin/bundle
bundle is /usr/bin/bundle
[root@bslxenvy64 tmp]# /usr/bin/bundle --version
Bundler version 2.7.1
[root@bslxenvy64 tmp]# /bin/bundle --version
Bundler version 2.7.1

Re: [SOLVED] ruby-bundler-2.7.2 returns version 2.7.1

/bin should be a symlink to usr/bin, and should NOT be in your PATH. It's caused some strange issues, but not this one.

This is going to have to be someone who knows ruby, as /usr/lib/bundle is a ruby script and I don't know enough to know where it's pulling the old version from.

Re: [SOLVED] ruby-bundler-2.7.2 returns version 2.7.1

well, I don't see any way that the missing symlink is causing this issue. /usr/bin/bundle produces the same version error. They could be hard-linked...

yeah, it might have to be someone who knows ruby. I don't. So, I guess I wait for a ruby developer to come along...?

Re: [SOLVED] ruby-bundler-2.7.2 returns version 2.7.1

$ pacman -Qkk ruby-bundler

If that shows nothing,  if you create a new user can you reproduce the issue with that user?

Re: [SOLVED] ruby-bundler-2.7.2 returns version 2.7.1

That gives me:

$ pacman -Qkk ruby-bundler
ruby-bundler: 515 total files, 0 altered files

I have no idea what that means, not being a ruby developer.

Re: [SOLVED] ruby-bundler-2.7.2 returns version 2.7.1

pacman.8.en QUERY OPTIONS (APPLY TO -Q)

-k, --check
Check that all files owned by the given package(s) are present on the system. If packages are not specified or filter flags are not provided, check all installed packages. Specifying this option twice will perform more detailed file checking (including permissions, file sizes, and modification times) for packages that contain the needed mtree file.

Edit:
No altered files means that is not the cause.  What about with the new user?

Re: [SOLVED] ruby-bundler-2.7.2 returns version 2.7.1

This isn't a package issue or anything like that. The 'bundle' script just loads the gem, so there's something wrong in the ruby environment that there is an older gem taking priority. We see this kind of thing with python when people use pip or leave a venv/pyenv active. So this is about knowing where to look for that kind of thing with ruby.

Re: [SOLVED] ruby-bundler-2.7.2 returns version 2.7.1

This isn't a package issue or anything like that.

bundle-2.7.2 returns wrong version 2.7.1 #8991

The 'bundle' script just loads the gem

`pacman -Qkk ruby-bundler` confirmed /usr/bin/bundle has not been modified.

So this is about knowing where to look for that kind of thing with ruby.

Could be `GEM_PATH`  `GEM_HOME`  `RUBYLIB` switching to the new user was intended to remove such settings.

Re: [SOLVED] ruby-bundler-2.7.2 returns version 2.7.1

gem install bundler

It'd be nice if this was done in the post_install script. Not everyone who needs and uses ruby is a ruby developer. And this, it seems to me, is something only a ruby developer would know.

Re: [SOLVED] ruby-bundler-2.7.2 returns version 2.7.1

gem install bundler

Your solution is to keep mixing ruby provided by pacman and provided by gem?

Yeah, this is what CAUSED the problem in the first place, and will cause problems again on the next update.
