Webroar has dependency on starling-starling gem which does not exist on GemCutter

#5

Webroar has a dependency on the 'starling-starling' gem. This gem project does not exist on gemcutter (it sounds like an old github dependency). On gemcutter the project is just 'starling'.

This causes a failure to install if the user does not have github as a gem source.

ERROR: Error installing webroar:

webroar requires starling-starling (>= 0.10.0, runtime)

The starling project info can be found here:

    Gemcutter (and erstwhile Rubyforge) does not have the latest version (0.10.0) of starling. The project owners have not pushed the gem over to Gemcutter as of now.

    We would be requesting them to do the same as in any case Github has decided to discontinue hosting of new gems. (The old ones would be available over there for approximately an year.)

    I assigned a bug to starling team to track this:

    Question. Since you are presumably using a simple use case for starling, would v0.9.8 of starling suffice as a gem dependency? I am not clear on the changes between 0.9.8 and 0.10.0 and whether they would have an effect on your usage.

    starling 0.9.8 on Gemcutter (& RubyForge) does not work well with newer versions (1.6.2 onwards) of memcache-client. starling-starling 0.10.0 fixes that issue.

    This discussion thread has more details.

    Dependency moved to Starling gem 0.10.1 available on Gemcutter.
