Remove y2racc and racc2y

Added by vo.x (Vit Ondruch) over 4 years ago. Updated about 4 years ago.

Status:
Closed
Target version:
-
[ruby-core:93516]

Description

The y2racc and racc2y are not available upstream anymore:

https://github.com/ruby/racc/commit/2d360188e9ed474d559ad2fa9bb0636feb445ea2

I know this is development branch commit, but is it worth of shipping them in Ruby if they are going to be removed in the future?

BTW I am asking this question, because their shebang should be updated otherwise:

https://github.com/ruby/racc/tree/1-4-stable/bin still have them. We can remove them when releasing racc-2.0.

Updated by vo.x (Vit Ondruch) over 4 years ago

Yes, the stable racc has them, but

  1. They were never shipped in Ruby, so if they won't be shipped, nobody should miss them.
  2. It is not clear if they outputs are useful or reliable, so why to ship them if you can't tell they are useful at all.

@hsbt (Hiroshi SHIBATA) Would you mind to reconsider as we are getting closer to the release?

Updated by hsbt (Hiroshi SHIBATA) about 4 years ago

I will try to remove it at racc-1.5 in the next year.
