RHEA-2014:1743 - Product Enhancement Advisory

Topic

Updated ror40 packages that fix several bugs and add various enhancements are
now available as part of Red Hat Software Collections 1.2 for Red Hat Enterprise
Linux.

Description

Ruby on Rails is a model–view–controller (MVC) framework for web application
development. Action Pack implements the controller and the view components.
Active Record implements object-relational mapping for accessing database
entries using objects. Active Support provides support and utility classes used
by the Ruby on Rails framework.

The ror40 packages have been upgraded to a later version that is required by Red
Hat Software Collections 1.2. The ror40 packages include Ruby on Rails 4.0, a
web application development framework written in the Ruby language. This
Software Collection is supported together with the ruby200 collection.

The ror40-rubygem-jquery-rails package has been upgraded to upstream version
3.1.0, which provides a number of bug fixes and enhancements over the previous
version. (BZ#1086262)

In addition, this update adds the following enhancement:

• To make the ror40-rubygem-bundler behavior consistent with

ruby193-rubygem-bundler, the "--local" option is now used by default to prefer
locally installed gems over the gems from remote repositories. (BZ#1115079)

Users of ror40 are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix these
bugs and add these enhancements.
