https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Ruby_on_Rails_6.1 == Summary == Ruby on Rails 6.1 is the latest version of well known web framework written in Ruby. == Owner == * Name: [[User:pvalena| Pavel Valena]], [[User:vondruch| Vít Ondruch]], [[User:jaruga| Jun Aruga]] * Email: pvalena@xxxxxxxxxx, vondruch@xxxxxxxxxx, jaruga@xxxxxxxxxx, ruby-sig@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx == Detailed Description == The Ruby on Rails stack is evolving quickly and Fedora needs to keep pace with it. Therefore the whole Ruby on Rails stack should be updated from 6.0 in Fedora 33 to 6.1 (latest version) in Fedora 34. This will ensure that all the Ruby developers using Fedora have the latest and greatest RPM-packaged Ruby on Rails. == Benefit to Fedora == This update will keep Fedora up-to-date and will ensure that the current Ruby on Rails developers stay with us as they will get support for system-packaged Ruby on Rails of the latest version. Apart from that, update to Rails 6.1 will bring Horizontal Sharding, Multi-DB Improvements, Strict Loading, Destroy Associations in Background, Error Objects and more. Update to Rails 6.1 contains hundreds of other fixes and improvements across all the frameworks. == Scope == * Proposal owners: ** The whole Rails stack has to be updated. ** Some dependencies of the Rails stack will need update. === Packages need to be created/updated === {| !

Rails stack won't be updated until all its dependencies are in Rawhide. After that, it will be a simple matter of updating the core packages (and their dependencies). * Contingency deadline: N/A (not a System Wide Change) * Blocks release? No * Blocks product?
