Details

I was trying to build the AUR package https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ruby-gobject-introspection/ and it fails to compile. It tries to find 'gnome2' gemspec file. https://gist.github.com/anatol/563aaa69bd6802cbf415

Other ruby packages might also expect that 'gnome2' is a rubygem.

I believe the best way is to install these bindings is by running "gem install" in package(). Or using some other way to generate/install gemspec. The idea is that gnome2 (and other bindings) gemspec should be present in system.
This task depends upon

Hi. Thanks for reporting. I will consider packaging ruby-gtk2 with gem install instead.

Try gem2arch tool, it creates PKGBUILD from gems. You only need to add required native dependencies.

According to the project author, installing ruby-gnome2 bindings via make is not supported anymore [1]. install-via-gem should be used instead. I reopen the ticket to track this activity.

The following packages are missing for GTK+3 support:
- ruby-cairo-gobject
- ruby-gdk3
- ruby-gio2
- ruby-gobject-introspection
- ruby-gtk3

Would you like to maintain them?

There are no such packages in Arch repos. Anyone can add them to AUR if needed.

ruby-gtk3 was previously available in Arch repos:

Package ruby-gtk3 is not required by any of the [community] package, thus it got dropped. Now it presents in AUR https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ruby-gtk3/

I have no plans to bring it to [community].
