Hi,
I’m creating RPM packages for:
- opinion (which includes Rails)
- ruby 1.8.4
- mongrel
- rake
- gem_plugin
- ruby-postgres
(I want to install opinion using postgres on a RHEL system that
doesn’t have internet access)
Do these things need rubygems also installed? Am i going to be
breaking things (i.e. mongrel) if I don’t use rubygems?
Thanks,
Joe

To my knowledge, gem_plugin is the only thing on that list that
requires rubygems. I know I’ve installed Mongrel without gems in the
past.
Joe,
Yes, Mongrel uses a little tiny chunk of code called GemPlugins to allow
others to extend Mongrel without having to make me add the code in.
It’s
already spawned Bradley Taylor’s mongrel_cluster plugin which is helping
many people do clustered deployments. Not including RubyGems would
break
this and pretty much be like disabling modules in Apache.
