do people use maven to build jruby projects/add dependencies?
<hichhiker>
We have an aging project that did that, but the repo seems to be permanently down, so I was wondering what is the current way of managing dependencies with jRuby

Hello! So it is the gem server that you are missing
<headius>
The feature you want to replace that with is mavengems, which works entirely on the client side and fetches gems directly from RubyGems.org
<hichhiker>
yeah, seems like our setup used torquebox.org - which is gone âšī¸
<hichhiker>
We tried mavengems but it did not work initially, and I did not try harder đ If that is commonly used, will try again
<headius>
JRuby itself uses that to pull down gems we ship
<headius>
We kept that server running for a while but there's no need for it anymore. Unfortunately we've done a poor job of communicating the new way
<hichhiker>
Will definitely try it again
<headius>
Yeah I hope that gets you up and working again! Let us know if you run into any issues
<headius>
The JRuby build is a little weird but you can look at that for some tips (maybe look at the XML instead of the .rb polyglot maven stuff that generates them)
<hichhiker>
hmm, I am missing something, not seeing any references to `mavengem` in JRuby's pom file....

we pull them to populate the Ruby standard library under lib
