You can try switching MODRUBY_REV to 1.9, 2.0, or 2.1 and see if it still works. > for me, vim is the only package that pulls in ruby 1.8, > the other ruby stuff tends to use newer ruby. 1.8 is still the most common version in ports for software that embeds ruby. Check the results of: find /usr/ports -name Makefile | fgrep -v ruby | xargs fgrep -l lang/ruby |xargs fgrep MODRUBY_REV It is true that ruby 1.8 is not supported upstream anymore. However, if there are any security issues reported in a newer ruby version that affect our ruby 1.8 port, I will try to backport the fix. Thanks, Jeremy
