Error installing archive-tar-minitar #23

Closed jordansissel closed 7 years ago

jordansissel commented 7 years ago

I confess that I am not sure what is causing this, but here is the error;

% gem install archive-tar-minitar
Fetching: minitar-0.6.gem (100%)
The `minitar` executable is no longer bundled with `minitar`. If you are
expecting this executable, make sure you also install `minitar-cli`.
Successfully installed minitar-0.6
Fetching: archive-tar-minitar-0.6.gem (100%)
ERROR:  Error installing archive-tar-minitar:
        archive-tar-minitar requires minitar-cli (~> 0.6)

If I manually install minitar-cli, then retry, installation is successful.

This is super weird!

I can reproduce this on ruby 2.2.1 and JRuby 1.7.24.

I'm going to try and spend some cycles figuring out what is causing this problem. The minitar gemspecs look fine to me. This behavior (by rubygems installer) is confusing.

I have opened a discussion on the RubyGems help site as I believe that this is an order-of-push issue. When I install the archive-tar-minitar gemfile locally, everything is pulled correctly.

@halostatue Agreed this looks like a rubygems.org problem. I updated the discussion you started. Summary: The rubygems.org dependency api does not show minitar-cli as a dependency even when the .gem file does.

I’ll probably be able to fix it with a 0.6.1 release (released in the right order this time…), but given that there’s an issue with 0.6 and gzip streams/files that no one can seem to tell me the best way to repro in a Vagrant box…, I don’t want to update archive-tar-minitar until I have that fixed.
