Rubygems.org: pp gem exists but not on the rubygems.org website

Created on 19 Apr 2019  路  8Comments  路  Source: rubygems/rubygems.org

e.g. https://rubygems.org/gems/pp says "This namespace is reserved by rubygems.org."

but having gem "pp" in my Gemfile and doing bundle open pp reveals an actual gem (which is not what I expected (e.g. pretty print from ruby):

gemspec:

Gem::Specification.new do |spec|
  spec.name          = "pp"
  spec.version       = Pp::VERSION
  spec.authors       = ["claudiob"]
  spec.email         = ["[email protected]"]
  spec.description   = %q{Super Pretty Print}
  spec.summary       = %q{A Super Pretty Print}
  spec.homepage      = "https://www.github.com/claudiob/pp"
  spec.license       = "MIT"

  spec.files         = `git ls-files`.split($/)
  spec.executables   = spec.files.grep(%r{^bin/}) { |f| File.basename(f) }
  spec.test_files    = spec.files.grep(%r{^(test|spec|features)/})
  spec.require_paths = ["lib"]
end
Pp.run subdomain: ENV['CAMPFIRE_SUBDOMAIN'], room_id: ENV['CAMPFIRE_ROOM_ID'], token: ENV['CAMPFIRE_TOKEN']

which is actually something to do with campfire.

pinging @claudiob in case

I haven鈥檛 looked in depth yet but I鈥檓 guessing there was a non-stdlib version before we reclaimed the name and you have that version installed.

Cc @hsbt

@dwradcliffe I listed the same case of pp to https://gist.github.com/hsbt/f0ea1c4c214828a09b4d808b72b9bb24

Can you transfer their ownership to me (and ruby core team)? We handle to yank or update them.

I can later today

@hsbt You should be able to access it now

Hi, I yanked the only version of pp. Nothing more to do here.
Thank you for reporting.

And here I am running a legacy project that required pp and finding this gem has been yanked today.

I am sorry you had to find out about it this way. It was meant to be removed way back. Do you not have any downloaded copy of the version?

We have re-uploaded the yanked version here: https://rubygems.org/gems/legacy-pp
We sincerely suggest migrating away from its use in any project.
