In preparation for Ruby 4.0, I'd like to bring this into Fedora as it was removed from the set of gems bundled with the default Ruby distribution. So far, vagrant-libvirt is known to depend on CGI.parse available in this package. See https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/vagrant-libvirt/pull-request/14 for more information.

Comment 1 Jarek Prokop 2025-12-15 17:02:55 UTC

Will be built after Ruby 4.0 is the latest Ruby, it is currently not expected to work correctly with Ruby 3.4.

Successful rubygem-cgi Copr build https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/jackorp/rubygem-cgi-pkg/build/9911784/ with Ruby 4.0 from: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/jackorp/ruby-4.0/build/9910517/

Comment 2 Fedora Review Service 2025-12-16 05:58:22 UTC

Copr build:
https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/build/9914378
(failed)

Build log:

Please make sure the package builds successfully at least for Fedora Rawhide.

- If the build failed for unrelated reasons (e.g. temporary network
  unavailability), please ignore it.
- If the build failed because of missing BuildRequires, please make sure they
  are listed in the "Depends On" field

Comment 3 Jarek Prokop 2025-12-16 11:34:50 UTC

Abandoning, another approach not requiring rubygem-cgi was suggested https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/vagrant-libvirt/pull-request/14#comment-298172 using URI.decode_www_form, allowing to skip CGI altogether, which succeeded https://github.com/vagrant-libvirt/vagrant-libvirt/pull/1866

Since there isn't other package known to require rubygem-cgi, therefore not necessary, I'd rather not bring this to Fedora yet.
