@nateberkopec “Please merge my fix” is one reason why I wished package ecosystems in general made it easier to use (temporary) forks. Rubygems/bundler does this well.
But eg I’m hitting a glibc bug with a not-yet-distro-backported upstream fix. Tooling for forking is… frustrating 😕

It's also possible to do it through CI. There's an open issue for that, in case you want to help!

This is a problem with rubygems itself, specifically the bundle command, and if you don’t believe that, copy the Gemfile above and figure out what bundle install does on your system.

@getajobmike I know this is not as safe, but some time ago I introduced a setting in the MFA options for Rubygems that doesn’t require 2FA codes when deploying with a token. You can find this in your profile settings, I can’t check the exact name right now but it’s a drop down setting

@AnnatarTheMaia @bcantrill That’s hardly new though is it? I guess NPM, RubyGems, PyPI, CPAN, etc aren’t connected to the Internet at all times? The problem/strength is that https://t.co/560Aw4i3dz is written in the same language and executed without the user needing to know it’s existence.

@joemasilotti @gossbc Yeah for RubyGems I write the README first, including setup and code samples, to make sure I’m defining the problem correctly before I try to solve it.
After that initial work, I try to find similar gems, which I add to the README and write about how its the same or different.

But nobody breaks this story down like @maciejmensfeld. Read how @WhiteSourceSoft Diffend ensured no gems were compromised.

@hubertlepicki @rubygems Not the core problem here. Every software is vulnerable ;) the centralization we have in RubyGems is both good and bad but the benefits outweigh the costs/risks.

@maciejmensfeld @rubygems do you think centralized package repositories are inherently vulnerable to attacks and we should start thinking of building a distributed system or that's not the core problem here?
