Ruby MRI 2.0 has been retired by upstream in February 2016.[1] |
| 10 |
We remove Ruby MRI 2.0 support from the tree now. Ruby MRI 2.1 remains |
| 11 |
activated in base profile's RUBY_TARGETS variable by default. |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
If your currently eselected Ruby interpreter is ruby20, our |
| 14 |
recommendation is to change it to ruby21. At the moment Ruby MRI 2.1 |
| 15 |
delivers the best possible support of all Ruby interpreters in tree. |

|
| 17 |
Check the current setting via: |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
eselect ruby show |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
Change the current setting to Ruby MRI 2.1 via: |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
eselect ruby set ruby21 |
