Description Dominic Cleal 2013-07-09 14:34:39 UTC

Description of problem:
When doing a gem install of a native gem that calls a Makefile, an additional file is created in the installation directory that appears to be a by-product of the ext build process.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ruby-2.0.0.195-8.fc19.x86_64
ruby-libs-2.0.0.195-8.fc19.x86_64
rubygems-2.0.3-1.fc19.noarch

How reproducible:
Always on F19 with rubygems 2.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. gem install mysql
2. ls -l /usr/local/share/gems/gems/mysql-2.9.1/ext/mysql_api/siteconf*rb

Actual results:
# gem install mysql
Fetching: mysql-2.9.1.gem (100%)
Building native extensions.  This could take a while...

Expected results:
no siteconf*rb file

Additional info:
Fixed by upstream (pending) PR: https://github.com/rubygems/rubygems/pull/587

Comment 2 Mamoru TASAKA 2013-07-12 07:50:22 UTC

Okay, now I am thinking of upgrading rubygems to 2.0.4, however at first I want to see how Vít think about bug 979133 (yeah, ruby / rubygems on Fedora really needs some cleanup...)

Comment 3 Vít Ondruch 2013-07-12 16:07:06 UTC

RubyGems update should be ok. Some patches were even accepted upstream, so it should be a bit better now.

BTW 2.0.5 were released already.

Comment 4 Mamoru TASAKA 2013-07-15 08:03:53 UTC

Well, it seems 2.0.5 needs some patches (binary extension installation fails...) I am preparing.
