@basicfeatures, can I ask for your feedback on this before I merge it?

flavorjones commented 2 years ago

I have not been able to make OpenBSD's tar handle xz-compressed files (libxml2 released only xz tarballs for 2.9.13). Have you been able to compile nokogiri from source on a stock OpenBSD system without doing this?

Have you been able to compile nokogiri from source on a stock OpenBSD system without doing this?

If you mean compiling through gem install nokogiri then yes, but that was some 10 months ago.

Why would Nokogiri need the libxml2 source anyway, couldn't it use OpenBSD's libxml package instead?

flavorjones commented 2 years ago

@basicfeatures Nokogiri packages the source and compiled it by default, it's done this since 2013 (v1.6.0). If you opt into using system libraries (using --enable-system-libraries at install time) then of course the source is unused.

I'm going to merge this because I'm not hearing from you that you can make BSD tar handle xz files.

And deployed.

Hello!

I'm going to merge this because I'm not hearing from you that you can make BSD tar handle xz files.

Sorry about that, I completely forgot. I asked around but unfortunately nope.

flavorjones commented 2 years ago

Thanks for your help!

Likewise man!
