Hi, I'm (using CentOS 6.4 and I'm) suffering from an AFAIU performance/design bug (http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/20865) which (althoughit's not recommended as a work-around) does not occur when using Ruby-1.9.3 (Yaeh!) instead of Ruby-1.8.7. I just can't find a public, well-known, well-maintained repository (I can't find any, actually) that offers it as an EL6 RPM.
I know one can install different ruby versions with *rvm*. My problems with this approach are (similar issues with compiling from source): - *rvm* and *yum* (the way Ruby is currently installed) are tools that AFAIK don't care/know about each other - *gem* (I guess I'd have to use *gem *then to install puppet?) and *yum* (the way puppet and puppet-server packages are currently installed) are tools that AFAIK don't care/know about each other - Because not caring/knowing about each other - Can one tool harm (e.g. partially override?) software/files installed by the other tool? - Which Ruby do I start, when typing *ruby *into a console... same for * puppet*. Which of these "rivaling" tools (*rvm* vs. *yum*, *gem* vs. * yum) *has control over e.g. $PATH order? That's why I would prefer a Ruby-1.9.3 RPM that I could install (clean update over 1.8.7) which in addition works fine with RPM packages (e.g. puppet-server-xxx.el6.noarch.rpm, puppet-xxx.el6.noarch.rpm) from yum.puppetlabs.com. Naive question: Why don't you provide one in yum.puppetlabs.com :-) ? Christian -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Developers" group.
