- We don't tell the user to create the gems anywhere in the testenv
README - This seems overly complicated to me. Can't we publish the gems on
rubygems and install them in the testenv from there? And then if we or
other users want customized gems publish them to an internal repo. Or at
least skip the step of going through the web app and install them directly
from /genesis?
(1) is definitely a problem
(2) I agree. My intent was to have the testenv spin up a gemserver, but I
was having trouble getting that to work, specifically installing the gems
in the testenv, so went to the current method.
I think we can publish the gems on rubygems once this goes public since the
gems should not have any tumblr-isms in them. The caveat is that they also
don't have documentation and IMO are pretty ugly because of that.
The testenv web app is just a way to export (read that make available) the
files. If the bootbox gemserver works we can/should use that instead.
Thanks.

(@maddalab https://github.com/maddalab: Is this what you saw as well?)At first I thought it was DNS messing up the installation of this gem
somehow, but both of these are installed when creating the image with
create-image.sh. See genesis.ks L221
https://github.com/tumblr/genesis/blob/master/bootcd/genesis.ks#L221
and genesis.ks L250
https://github.com/tumblr/genesis/blob/master/bootcd/genesis.ks#L250.So, in the testenv, kickstart fetches the gems through the web app (from
static files in /genesis/src/*/
https://github.com/tumblr/genesis/blob/master/testenv/bootbox/web/genesis.rb#L19),
stores them in /root/repo/gems and then installs them from there. The
problems i see here are:

Cool, thanks @roymarantz, seems like we're on the same page. With (1) fixed i think we're in a decent state, but let me know if i can work on something with the gem setup.

@defect if you want to fix it, that would be cool. I suspect this might be due to bootbox and genesis being different based on different versions of the "OS".
