users may need to perform when updating their ports collection. The intent is similar to the /usr/src/UPDATING file. Kick it off with a description of how to update past the ruby 1.6->1.8 changeover on i386, cribbed from knu's commit message.

AFFECTS: i386 users of ruby and portupgrade
|
|
|
|
Change the default version of ruby to 1.8 for i386.
|
|
|
|
If you are a ruby developer and want to keep ruby 1.6 as default,
|
|
please add RUBY_DEFAULT_VER=1.6 to /etc/make.conf. Otherwise, please
|
|
run the following series of commands to migrate to ruby 1.8:
|
|
|
|
1) Reinstall portupgrade manually (and ruby 1.8 will be installed)
|
|
pkg_delete portupgrade-\*
|
|
(cd /usr/ports/sysutils/portupgrade; make install clean)
|
|
|
|
2) Reinstall everything that depends on ruby 1.6 (to use ruby 1.8)
|
|
portupgrade -fr lang/ruby16
|
|
|
|
3) Reinstall ruby 1.8 (because the previous step kills symlinks)
|
|
portupgrade -f lang/ruby18
|
|
|
|
4) Deinstall ruby 1.6 stuff (if you are paranoia)
|
|
pkg_deinstall -ri lang/ruby16
|
