1 Hello list,
2
3 Has anyone here succeeded in building a new system since the recent Ruby
4 language upgrade? I keep being thwarted by failure such as this typical one:
5
6 >>> Install dev-ruby/rake-13.0.3-r1 into /var/tmp/portage/dev-ruby/
7 rake-13.0.3-r1/image
8 * Running install phase for ruby26 ...
9 * Running install phase for ruby27 ...
10 Traceback (most recent call last):
11 3: from <internal:gem_prelude>:1:in `<internal:gem_prelude>'
12 2: from <internal:gem_prelude>:1:in `require'
13 1: from /usr/lib64/ruby/2.7.0/rubygems.rb:16:in `<top (required)>'
14 /usr/lib64/ruby/2.7.0/rubygems.rb:16:in `require': cannot load such file --
15 rubygems/compatibility (LoadError)
16 * ERROR: dev-ruby/rake-13.0.3-r1::gentoo failed (install phase):
17 * Unable to generate gemspec file.
18
19 Similar failures occur whatever profile I use (of the suitable ones), and no
20 matter whether I set amd64 or ~amd64 in make.conf.
21
22 It's possible that I had some unhelpful USE flags set, I suppose, but I did try
23 to minimise them.
24
25 In the end I went back to a month-old backup and updated that instead.

29 Peter.
