Hi,

I’ve finarlly supported Ruby/GTK2 RubyGems! Yey!  
We can also provide binary Ruby/GTK2 packages for Windows  
users.

But I can’t push gems to [rubygems.org](http://rubygems.org) because someone  
had already pushed to Ruby-GNOME2 gems to [rubygems.org](http://rubygems.org).  
I received the following message with ‘gem push  
glib2-0.90.0.gem’:

Pushing gem to [RubyGems.org](http://RubyGems.org)…  
You do not have permission to push to this gem.

Who is the Ruby/GTK2 gems uploader?  
How can I do for the situation?

## Thanks,

kou

Hi,

That’s a great news! Thank you for your hard work.  
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you need any “low skilled” help  
(repacking gems, … ), in particular for the Windows release (I am  
eager to be able to finally use all my Linux-GTK2 GUIs on Windows  
computers).

Bests,

Stefano

Can’t see the author name from the gemcutter website:

> **[gtk2 | RubyGems.org | your community gem host](https://rubygems.org/gems/gtk2)**

The original rubyforge website admin is:  
Mathieu B.  
Masao M.  
([http://rubyforge.org/projects/ruby-gnome2/](http://rubyforge.org/projects/ruby-gnome2/))

Here is some discussion which some ppl faced the same issue, you can try  
to post a link to request help from the gemcutter forum.

Hi,

I reported the result of this problem.

Some people tell me the uploader of Ruby-GNOME2 gem. I  
contact him and he add me to Ruby-GNOME2 gem owners by “gem  
owner” commands:

% gem owner glib2 --add [removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid](mailto:removed_email_address@domain.invalid)  
% gem owner gtk2 --add [removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid](mailto:removed_email_address@domain.invalid)  
… and other gems …

See also: [https://rubygems.org/pages/gem\_docs#owner](https://rubygems.org/pages/gem_docs#owner)

Now, I can push Ruby-GNOME2 gems.

## Many people, thanks for helping us!

I think its better use their official website to request for help:  
[http://help.rubygems.org/](http://help.rubygems.org/)

here are some discussion on transfer gem ownership:  
[http://help.rubygems.org/search?q=gem+ownership&t=d&scope=all&recommend=1&recommend=0](http://help.rubygems.org/search?q=gem+ownership&t=d&scope=all&recommend=1&recommend=0)

BTW, just wanted to say this is great news. Making this more accessible  
to users will really help people like me who are developing for the  
platform and want to provide users with a simple way to install the  
apps.

With 1.9 now stable and fast I think we’ll see more developers trying  
their hand at gtk development with ruby. It’s a great library and on the  
whole pretty easy to use.

Thanks for your efforts, Kou.
