"What's the best way to use Bundler and Rubymine?"

Rubymine 2.5 supposedly supports Bundler. Our default workstation install now uses RVM to manage Ruby interpreters & Gemsets, Rubymine 2.0 sees each interpreter/gemset as a separate Ruby SDK. So RVM manages our gem bundles.

  • Nokogiri v1.4.2, really needs JRuby 1.5.1 to work properly

A JRuby project had an issue where they upgraded Nokogiri, but got a "Can't find this function pointer" message. It turns out that the issue was an out-of-date libxml. The solution was to upgrade JRuby to 1.5.1, which they did with this addition to their Chef scripts:

execute "install_libxml2_2.7.6" do
  command 'ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~amd64 ~x86" emerge =libxml2-2.7.6'
  not_if { FileTest.directory?("/var/db/pkg/dev-libs/libxml2-2.7.6") }
end
