>Description:

/usr/pkgsrc/x11/ruby-tk/Makefile demands that a tcl greater than or equal to 8.5.7,
but no high-falutin tcl's greater than or equal to 8.6 be used:

=> Full dependency tcl>=8.5.7<8.6: NOT found

so, we merrily crank tcl-8.5.15nb1:

-rw-r--r--  2 root  wheel  2432090 May 19 10:06 ../../packages/All/tcl-8.5.15nb1.tgz

../../misc/libreoffice4-4.2.2.1, 
/usr/pkgsrc/misc/libreoffice4, on the other hand, demands a tcl greater than
or equal to 8.6.1nb1:

=> Full dependency tcl>=8.6.1nb1: NOT found

and produces tcl-8.6.1nb3:

-rw-r--r--  2 root  wheel  3718179 May 20 18:42 ../../packages/All/tcl-8.6.1nb3.tgz
tcl-8.5.15nb1

and so, when we go to install this bright, new tcl, we get:

===> Install binary package of tcl-8.6.1nb3
pkg_add: A different version of tcl-8.6.1nb3 is already installed: tcl-8.5.15nb1
pkg_add: 1 package addition failed

and so, since libreoffice wants a tcl greater than 8.6, while ruby21 wants a tcl
less than 8.6, we're at an impossible impass.

>How-To-Repeat:

Build /usr/pkgsrc/lang/ruby21.  Then build /usr/pkgsrc/misc/libreoffice4
>Fix:

delete, and forget about the one or the other.

 Good day, OBATA Akio

 Sorry if I seem a bit strident, but I'm rather lost and confused.

 I have no idea.  We have a few ruby programs around, and I don't know
 if they require this.

 I just cd /usr/pkgsrc/lang/ruby21 and Make.  I've assumed that that's
 the thing to do, because I've got no better information -- I'm rather
 shooting in the dark.

 If installing lang/ruby21-base will turn the trick, I've no problems
 with that.

 But, I wonder, is the impass going to be resolved, and are you
 suggesting building lang/ruby21-base as a temporary work-around?  If
 so, I can live with that.

 Now, do I compile the "(and other required ruby-* packages)"
 separately, by hand?

 And, can I just (force?) delete the ruby-produced tcl, and go from
 there?

 Yours,

 -Mike

 If you wrote those programs, you know what ruby modules are required.
 You must install such ruby-* package by yourself.
 If those programs are installed from pkgsrc, required ruby modules
 already should be installed automatically.

 Please see also DESCR, in addition to just a package name.
 lang/ruby21 is Ruby 2.1.1 release meta package, contains full upstream distribution.
 lang/ruby21-base is Ruby 2.1.1 release minimum base package

 It you want to use Ruby language, it is sufficient.

 ruby21-base is already installed if you have ruby21 package.

 As already described first.

 Just remove ruby21 and ruby21-tk packages, no need to force.

 Just some comments / ramblings:


 It seems that in pkgsrc, x11/ruby-tk is the last holdout which
 requires tcl and tk older than 8.6.  Perhaps it should "get with the
 program" and update?  However, the trivial attempt with

 results in sour messages from the configure machinery in x11/ruby-tk
 that it really does need Tcl/Tk 8.5 or older.  So ... more effort is
 required to follow that path.  Does anyone know what specifically in
 ruby-tk is incompatible with newer Tcl/Tk?

 and doing a "make mps" in ruby21-base (after placing the patch file as
 above) lets ruby212-tk-2.1.2nb3 install, but I don't know if it will
 work, and I don't know how to test it.  As far as I can see, though,
 there are no warnings from the C compilations done in x11/ruby-tk.


 I'm not all that familiar with ruby, and without setting any make
 variables, it seems that the build of ruby21 stops because ruby-gdbm
 selected ruby200, and after happily installing ruby200-gdbm-2.0.0p481
 the build stops with

 ERROR: [depends.mk] A package matching ``ruby212-gdbm>=3D2.1.2'' should=

 ERROR:     be installed, but one cannot be found.  Perhaps there is a
 ERROR:     stale work directory for ../../databases/ruby-gdbm?

 and I can assure you that there was no stale work dir.

 Looking at lang/ruby/rubyversion.mk suggests that I should maybe set
 RUBY_VERSION_DEFAULT to 21, so I put that in /etc/mk.conf, and this
 fixes the build in databases/ruby-gdbm/ to install ruby212-gdbm-2.1.2.

 Confusingly, it seems that setting RUBY_VERSION_DEFAULT in the
 environment causes x11/ruby-tk to select building with ruby200,
 despite my setting in /etc/mk.conf.  Removing that variable from the
 environment fixes it to try to build ruby212-tk-2.1.2nb3!?!


 Can someone please confirm that setting RUBY_VERSION_DEFAULT in
 /etc/mk.conf is a requirement to have ruby21 built properly?

 Hello, Havard.

 Thanks for messing around with the Ruby package, to see if it can be
 upgraded.  I'm hoping it can be fixed without a great deal of trouble.

 I compiled the ruby21 package with no trouble at all -- didn't have to
 change anything.  Can't say what will happen if you compile
 ruby21-base.

 However, the "can't find ...gdbm... " business is frequent on adding a
 new ruby version, and I was rather expecting to encounter a problem
 compiling ruby21, -- but I didn't.  So I recommended closing PR 48509
 based on that.

 The work-around I did to compile ruby19 and ruby200 (before the fix)
 was essentially what you did.  I dunno.

 These are the two PR's on the earlier ruby's.  They're both closed now:

 46420  Building for ruby19 ends with "can't find ruby19-gdbm>=1.9.2pl320"

 48509  Building for ruby200 ends with "can't find ruby200-gdbm>=2.0.0p353"

 Yours,

 -Mike

State-Changed-Why:
This bug report became stale: I don't think the in-tree version of libreoffice depends on tcl at all, and haven't seen reports of this since. Not surprising, since they had two major versions since and it's now 6.x. Feel free to report new bugs if you have issues with libreoffice. Sorry it wasn't resolved at the time.
