Hi, Is there a way to tell rubygems to update all gems except some? Something to put in ~/.gemrc? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Updating a gem doesn''t remove older versions, so it normally won''t break anything.

If you''ve got some code that doesn''t work with the latest version of a gem you can make rubygems always load the exact version you need.

Hi guys, You''re not directly answering my question (I consider the answer as no it''s not possible), and since you''re asking "why?": I run a FreeBSD server and I wanted to install Nginx with option to support passenger and Ruby 1.9 through FreeBSD ports'' system. The problem is that Nginx requires the ruby-rake to be installed through port as well. This means that if I run "gem update", rake will be updated and its corresponding freebsd port will still be thinking to see the old version, so when I update my ports, the port manager will be confused because it sees a rake binary which is not the expected one (freebsd port manager does a checksum on binaries). Therefore I''d like to be able to update all gems using "gem update", and update the rake gem using freebsd ports. But if you have any workarounds to offer I''ll gladly consider them :) -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
