ruby-build now prints the full invocation of (almost) every external
command that it runs. Typically that is something like:
-> ./configure --prefix=/path/to/ruby
-> make -j 2
-> make install
All output of these commands still goes to the log file by default.
This changes the behavior of `--verbose` mode to simply redirect all
command output to the stdout & stderr of the parent process instead of
writing to and then tailing the log file. This allows implementations of
commands like `./configure` or `make` to detect a terminal and output
color.
If a system OpenSSL version was not found or is at version that is incompatible with a Ruby being installed, ruby-build would typically download and compile a new OpenSSL version scoped to that Ruby installation.
Now the `needs_openssl` condition will also check for Homebrew-installed OpenSSL and automatically link to the first one found that satisfies the version requirement. This primarily helps speed up Ruby installation on macOS where the system OpenSSL is never compatible and where Homebrew is a de-facto standard package manager.
Example:
install_package openssl-1.1 "https://..." --if needs_openssl:1.0.1-3.1.x
In the example, the two values are passed as arguments to the `needs_openssl` function.
LC_CTYPE is "utf-8" on macOS, which instructs utilities like `tr` to expect Unicode input. However, in case of binary files, which we here explicitly guard against, the utility will fail because of invalid input encoding.
The solution is to set LC_CTYPE=C which effectively removes the expectation around input encoding and allows `tr` to process the input byte-by-byte.
TruffleRuby build definitions used to explicitly rely on `brew --prefix openssl@1.1` on macOS and abort installation if that was not found. However, this check didn't take into account that the user might have set OPENSSL_PREFIX in their environment, or that they have another `openssl@*` version installed via Homebrew. This change removes the `use_homebrew_openssl` check and allows TruffleRuby to perform its own OpenSSL detection.

- Now only generates a `configure` script if explicitly specified
- Add ability to add arbitrary files to the tarball
- Cache most common tarballs in fixtures directory to speed up tests
Reuse original `build_package_copy` instead of having to maintain an additional `build_package_copy_to` step.
As a bonus, this prevents a global variable `to` from leaking.
The default settings for LDFLAGS and CPPFLAGS were there since the initial commit to ruby-build:
LDFLAGS="-L${PREFIX_PATH}/lib"
CPPFLAGS="-I${PREFIX_PATH}/include"
However, it's not clear to me what these settings help with. A typical Ruby installation will initialize files in these directories, but it will do so regardless of the environment variables.
So, let's remove them and see what breaks.
- The `make -j 1` workaround seems neither in effect nor necessary anymore
- Assume that KERNEL_BITS workaround isn't necessary anymore
- Declare more variables as local
* macos-arm64 runners recently became available for ruby/truffleruby-dev-builder.
* Those builds are more frequently updated than on graalvm-ce-dev-builds.
