+
+ The default ruby version has been updated from 2.5 to 2.6.
+
+ If you compile your own ports you may keep 2.5 as the default version by
+ adding the following lines to your /etc/make.conf file:
+
+ #
+ # Keep ruby 2.5 as default version
+ #
+ DEFAULT_VERSIONS+=ruby=2.5
+
+ If you wish to update to the new default version, you need to first stop any
+ software that uses ruby. Then, you will need to follow these steps, depending
+ upon how you manage your system.
+
+ If you use pkgng, simply upgrade:
+ # pkg upgrade
+
+ If you do not use pkg, please check entry 20190420.
+ The description there should also work for this version.
