This patch to devel/ruby-gems for ruby 1.8 and to lang/ruby/1.9 for ruby
1.9 allows installation of C extension gems as a user in more cases.
The current patch just handles the case where --user-install is used
(which the ports system uses to build packages). However, other
libraries that use the rubygems API to install packages as the user
(e.g. bundler) may still have problems, as experienced by jcs@.
Basically, ruby wants to use "install -o root -g bin" to install files,
even when the install is run as non-root. We need to strip that "-o
root -g bin" out if install is done as non-root. Instead of checking
for a flag set by "gem install --user-install", just check whether the
current user is root, and remove "-o root -g bin" otherwise.
I've run this through a bulk of the ruby ports without problems. I've
tested that this fixes a problem using bundler to install gems as a
user.
Tested on amd64. I plan to commit the lang/ruby/1.9 diff in a few days
along the ruby 1.9.3-p286 update, and the devel/ruby-gems diff shortly
thereafter.
Thanks,
Jeremy
