- woodruffw 5y agoI haven’t meaningfully exercised my Ruby skills in a while, but you can probably fake a wheel-style gem by having extconf or something similar fetch an appropriate build from a server instead of performing the build locally. That would be an awful hack, which is why it wouldn’t surprise me to find out that people are doing it :-)
