February 2011

I am pleased to announce that the last packages required for Rails 3 support in Fedora have been pushed to rawhide and successfully built in anticipation of the Fedora 15 release. Rails 3.0.3 is a major upgrade from 2.3.8 which brings some API incompatibilities as a trade off for many new features. Rails 3 has been submitted and accepted as a feature for Fedora 15.

To make use of the Rails RPMs from an earlier release, simply setup the rawhide repo and install rails:

* sudo yum install fedora-release-rawhide
* sudo yum install --enablerepo=rawhide rubygem-rails

Enjoy!
