When trying to run gem_server on either of my gentoo systems, I get the
following:
[2006-09-01 11:08:44] INFO WEBrick 1.3.1

I’ve googled and only found some people with issues from a couple of
years
back, which surprised me seeing as I’ve encountered this on two
different
systems. Any ideas what’s up?

Guessing from the last time I was playing around in create_listeners,
but do your systems support IPv6?

They do not, emergeing ruby with the ipv6 USE flag prevents this error,
though
seeing as my system has no ipv6 support in any other packages, or the
kernel
this doesn’t seem like a sensible thing to do. Am I likely to see
anything
break?

I don’t know.
Can you try:
require ‘socket’
p Socket.getaddrinfo(nil, 80, Socket::AF_UNSPEC,
Socket::SOCK_STREAM, 0, Socket::AI_PASSIVE)
On an IPv6 capable machine I get:
[[“AF_INET6”, 80, “::”, “::”, 30, 1, 6], [“AF_INET”, 80, “0.0.0.0”,
“0.0.0.0”, 2, 1, 6]]
and on an IPv4 only machine I get:
[[“AF_INET”, 80, “0.0.0.0”, “0.0.0.0”, 2, 1, 6]]

On my ipv4 machine I get:
SocketError: getnameinfo: ai_family not supported
from (irb):4:in `getaddrinfo’
from (irb):4
On the ipv4 machine with gentoo’s ebuild of ruby compiled with the ipv6
USE
flag I get similar output to yours. I wonder if this is something broken
on
my systems, a ruby issue, or a packaging issue.

I suspect it is an issue on the gentoo side, as far as I can tell,
getaddrinfo should not fail when given AF_UNSPEC. My IPv4 only
machine (FreeBSD 4) behaves this way.
