Can't upgrade rubygems-*?

Rocky Linux General
1

I’m running Rocky 8.7 and hve done a Tenable scan which points to all my rubygems-* needing an upgrade because of Rocky Enterprise Software Foundation Product Errata
However when I try to update they all say they’re the current version ;-(
I suspect a repo disabled or something odd, any ideas?

Tenable (like other scanners) tend to incorrect on how it assesses what is up to date and what isn’t. Ruby is a module in Rocky Linux 8, which means there are multiple streams. The default stream is 2.5. If you want to upgrade to 3.0, you need to switch the module stream to 3.0. Check dnf module list.

You’re correct , looks like we’re on the default 2.5 stream. :slight_smile:

ruby                                        2.5 [d][e]

ruby                                        3.0           
ruby                                        3.1

I’ll switch to 3.0 and see if that sorts it.
