Not available on Rubygems #2

It looks like humanname has been pulled from Rubygems (if it was once there): https://rubygems.org/gems/humanname

I was able to install it using specific_install extension to the gem command, but then I get the following error: 

irb(main):001:0> require 'humanname'
...
LoadError (cannot load such file -- humanname/native)

Willing to help debug this, just not sure where to start.

(I originally commented part of this as #1, but deleted that once I ran into the LoadError, as it's a distinct problem.)

Weird, I have no idea why it disappeared, but I pushed again and there appear to be working versions now.

The most-recent version on RubyGems is currently 0.5.0:

Were 0.6.0 and 0.7.0 pushed to RubyGems at some point?

Hey @djudd, I appreciate your work! I want to ask if it's possible to push human name updates to RubyGems and update the rust dependency itself. Thank you!

djudd commented 7 months ago

I pushed a version 0.8 to Rubygems just now. It's got cross-compiled versions of the Rust library but I haven't tested those except for the Github CI. Please let me know if it works for you.

It looks like RubyGems has only the Mac ARM version (not sure if this was intended, or if the versions for other platforms disappeared):

I get version 0.5.0 if install it on Linux:

docker run --rm ruby:3.3.0 gem install humanname
Successfully installed blankslate-2.1.2.4
Successfully installed parslet-1.5.0
Successfully installed toml-0.1.2
Successfully installed thor-0.19.4
Building native extensions. This could take a while...
Successfully installed helix_runtime-0.6.4
Successfully installed humanname-0.5.0-x86_64-linux
6 gems installed

Ok, this is annoying. I set things up so that the gem always bakes in the native libraries for all the supported platforms after cross compiling with Rust. However, I can't figure out how to get gem build/push to do the equivalent of cross-compiling, even though that should be way simpler than what Rust has to do. Instead I did manage to get it pushing from Github Actions, which is cleaner... but also doesn't deal with cross-platform/cross-architecture stuff well.

The upshot is there's now a Linux-x86 version on Rubygems, but I'll open new issues for improved cross-platform support.
