rubygem-rubyracer was retired last year: http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/rpms/rubygem-therubyracer.git/diff/dead.package?id=4206bd0748385b34151f4f5f636dc1644f97ec95.

Yeah, that's an option too. How hard would it be?

Not much probably but I don't have any Ruby experience. I've tried to code something around but everything failed in the end.

I am adding some stuff that might help users interested in porting:

https://github.com/discourse/mini_racer - pointed out by vondruch, maintained alternative to therubyracer, but API is different

https://github.com/huginn/huginn/pull/1961/commits/b1c4e5a6c8237b49e63f9a2b6e69883ae4ff3f4d#diff-ebbdd90260f85855146205da3872662c - PR of random project ported from therubyracer to mini_racer

This is an automatic check from review-stats script.

This review request ticket hasn't been updated for some time. We're sorry
it is taking so long. If you're still interested in packaging this software
into Fedora repositories, please respond to this comment clearing the
NEEDINFO flag.

You may want to update the specfile and the src.rpm to the latest version
available and to propose a review swap on Fedora devel mailing list to increase
chances to have your package reviewed. If this is your first package and you
need a sponsor, you may want to post some informal reviews. Read more at
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_get_sponsored_into_the_packager_group.

Without any reply, this request will shortly be considered abandoned
and will be closed.
Thank you for your patience.
