Let's not add_bundler_dependencies anymore

• saurik 16y ago
  As someone who also runs various open-source software projects, I wonder if this guy actually sent a message to Yehuda about his suggestion (forcefully deprecating this feature, which already seems to be removed from the documentation, with a warning on use), or if he feels posting messages to his blog (which Yehuda may or may not, and probably doesn't, read) is the best way to get his issue heard.

    Well hopefully he did the former, but the latter is a worthwhile stopgap for all the gem writers who haven't though about it, and it's already the #2 google result for add_bundler_dependencies, so I say "well done!"

    Just to make sure we're all on the same page, I'm not complaining about Bunder and this is not an open letter to Yehuda or something (he's actually advising against using add_bundler_dependencies: http://twitter.com/wycats/status/25423837210 http://twitter.com/wycats/status/25423837210). I'm simply giving my opinion and I don't like how add_bundler_dependencies worked. Since there's a -- in my opinion -- better way to solve the same thing, I'm trying to urge others to stop using it. Not criticizing Bunder. In the end of the article I ask how everyone feels about adding a deprecation warning and I specifically call out to Yehuda and Carl, because I'm interested in their opinions about it. Thanks for your comment, "This Guy"
