Mspec breaking change

Ruby IronRuby
1

The mspec team checked in a change on June 30 that broke all of our
RubySpec tests. The -X option has been removed which is the option that
lets us tell the specs where the tags directory is. I’ve spent the
morning figuring out how to work around this and have something more or
less working now modulo a few new bugs that have now shown up.

Thanks,
-John

Sorry for not dealing with this earlier. I saw this after I committed on
Friday. I wanted to get to it this weekend, but I’ve been dealing with a
sick kid. I was planning on doing it first thing.

As a side note, does it seem right to ask why this wasn’t announced on
the Rubyspec list? It’s a pretty big change in my opinion that should
have been discussed on the mailing list.

Just a reminder that the rubyspec guys are on IRC,
irc.freenode.net/#rubyspec, might be better to hop in there and ask
what’s
up before putting it out on a public mailing list.

Sure. I can do it. I just wanted to make sure that I wasn’t
over-reacting.

Already brought it up on the rubyspec mailing list. I avoid IRC because
I get too distracted.
