From looking into this, it seems like most of the other versions of Ruby besides mri (e.g. jruby and truffleruby) still install fine without libyaml. These all report versions below 3.2.0 when invoking ruby -v though, so it's possible that they might break without this in the future.

For now, I'm thinking that I should add it as an optional dependency and mention that it's required for recent versions of mri.

Interesting! Let me look into this and confirm before adding it (but I suspect you're correct)

Ruby 3.2.0 doesn't build (and probably run) without libyaml. This probably affects other versions, too. Can you add it as a dep?

Not so sure if this is the right place, but it might help someone struggling with failing Ruby builds due to the openssl extension.

I got the following now:

The Ruby openssl extension was not compiled.
ERROR: Ruby install aborted due to missing extensions

It seems Ruby doesn't work with OpenSSL 3 yet. Install core/openssl-1.1 and then install Ruby as:

PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/lib/openssl-1.1/pkgconfig rbenv install 3.1.2

Here the diff you need to apply if you want the latest version and try ruby 3.0.0:

Sorry about the issue! I've pushed a new version that should now be working; let me know if it doesn't

Confirmed working with the same solution as @nyi:

 8  ⋮    │-_file="${pkgname}-v${pkgver}.tar.gz"
    ⋮ 8  │+_file="v${pkgver}.tar.gz"

I don't understand how this would unless you change the build() section to:

build() {
  cd $srcdir
  tar -x --strip-components 1 -zf "v${pkgver}.tar.gz"
}

If you don't make the change above - you get the error that states:

ruby-build-v20200926.tar.gz: Cannot open: No such file or directory

nyi commented on 2020-09-29 08:15 (UTC)

The downloaded file is now called v20200926.tar.gz instead of ruby-build-v20200926.tar.gz.

You can fix the build by changing the following line in PKGBUILD:

- _file="${pkgname}-v${pkgver}.tar.gz"
+ _file="v${pkgver}.tar.gz"
