Merb 0.9.5 is released. Read announcement at Merb blog:

http://blog.merbivore.com/2008/08/25/merb-0-9-5-spoons-and-knives

We now try to follow a 2 weeks release cycle so expect 0.9.6 around
8th of September.

hey guys,
fyi, this broke a dependency somewhere (probably a broken one in
0.9.4...).


~# gem install merb -v 0.9.4 --no-rdoc --no-ri
ERROR: Error installing merb:
merb-action-args requires merb-core (>= 0.9.5, runtime)
~# gem install merb --no-rdoc --no-ri
(many gems installed, but not listing extlib, though it is installed)

~# gem install data_mapper --no-rdoc --no-ri
ERROR: Error installing data_mapper:
data_objects requires extlib (= 0.9.4, runtime)

so I installed merb 0.9.5, then also extlib 0.9.4, and then
data_mapper will install... So the merb -v 0.9.4 gem will install the
latest merb-action-args and not the one that corresponds to 0.9.4.

The dependencies are not simple here ;)

thanks,
Adam

Here's the deal:

Various DM gems require extlib "= 0.9.5" -- this conflicts with the new version of extlib released with Merb (0.9.6). We need DataMapper to release another gem ASAP with ">= 0.9.5", possibly with a "< 1.0".

Consider these the growing pains of actually sharing code across libraries. I am absolutely certain it's the right choice.

yep, thats certainly the issue we're seeing!

having updated all our merb gems,
is there a way to rollback to merb 095 til DM and merb play nice
again?

FYI the gems generally have never worked so we install from sources/
git.
is there a way with the merb git repos to spec a version # that
relates to merb 095?
