ruby-default-gems.noarch: W: obsolete-not-provided rubygem-did_you_mean
If a package is obsoleted by a compatible replacement, the obsoleted package
should also be provided in order to not cause unnecessary dependency
breakage.
If the obsoleting package is not a compatible replacement for the old one,
leave out the Provides.

It think this should not be a warning, but a mere INFO. Note the 'IF'.

=>
The Provides line needs for the Obsolete line.
I don't think we want to create Provides for those, as those are "Default" gems.

The Obsoletes/Provides are always tricky. I think these are fine as they
are.
Could you explain more about the Obsoletes/Provides are always tricky?
Maybe I do not understand "Provides" syntax well.
Do you know a helpful web page explaining it?


1) It is always up to debate, what `compatible replacement` actually means. `ruby-default-gems` certainly provides did_you_mean, but how compatible it is? The original independent gem had definitely some idiosyncrasies, while the bundle gem has different set.

2) If you start with `Provides`, then the question is when to stop providing them. If something depends on them, the dependencies won't be fixed any time before the `Provides` is removed (or the chances are just slim).

3) After all, the message is in this case is clear, get back closer to the upstream. People should not bother with rubygem-did_you_mean anymore. This should be forgotten.


## rpms/ruby CI to add rpmlint test.

Can we check the rpmlint issues on an early timing: pull-request and push?
I think adding the rpmlint check ro rpm/ruby CI is a possible way
related to this ticket.
Yes, I agree we could add this for the CI (functional). I'm not sure some 
generic checks aren't considered already for all PRs- I'll inquire abou it and 
follow up with you on IRC.

https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/ruby/pull-request/67
Shall we add it after the PR #67 will be merged?

The Zuul is running rpmlint on PR. You can check the PR you've
referenced above.
That's good news. I can see the running rpmlint there.

https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/ruby/pull-request/78#comment-70514
rpm-linter : FAILURE in 7m 26s
container: Run rpmlint

rpmlint /root/src/src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/ruby/*.rpm
But this rpmlint command is not enough. The rpmlint for the
`ruby.spec` should be added like this.
Where can we report this issue?


@fbo was always helpful, e.g. here:

https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/ruby/pull-request/70#comment-60863



```
$ rpmlint /root/src/src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/ruby/*.rpm /path/to/*.spec
```

And I love to see all the SUCCESS results as a default. Because the
default green status makes us notice new issues easily.
I think it's time to create ruby.rpmlintrc.

Seeing the example of python3.9 package, it seems that we can
intentionally ignore the false positive errors/warnings for a specific
file
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/python3.9/blob/rawhide/f/python3.9.rpmlintrc
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Taskotron/Tasks/dist.rpmlint

What do you think?


This is always double edge sword. The best would be if rpmlint does not report false positives, otherwise it will be always just informative.
