ruby gems versus emerge
 

I installed the "fastercsv" gem via gems rather than emerge :(

From http://packages.gentoo.org/category/dev-ruby?full_cat I don't even
see that package listed.

Are gems supposed to be installed via emerge?



thanks,

Thufir

I think the gems that make it into portage are ones the devs need.
There's been a few that I've used that aren't in portage.

As to which one you should use, I'm not sure. Personal preference?

Yes. There's a gems eclass that handles installing gems, making
gems-ebuils fairly easy. Have a look at, for example, the
dev-ruby/camping ebuild.

Oh, and there's an ebuild request (bug #209319) for dev-ruby/fastercsv,
including an ebuild submission. Just get it and put it in your local
overlay (or set one up, if you haven't already) :).

Cheers,

I'll take a look at that, thank you :)
