Dinosaur wants to build from source without a signing key...

[gl-yziquel]

Hi.

I'd like to build from source. A sort of personal hygiene.

I noticed the following in gem/rb_sys.gemspec:

spec.signing_key = File.expand_path("~/.ssh/gem-private_key.pem") if $0.end_with?("gem")

I could always circumvent that with a bit of hackery, but... I would greatly appreciate if there could be an easy way to build the gemfolder hierarchy with a simple command like bundle exec rake build.

Could it be possible to either consider a NO_SIGN environment variable or some explicit instructions as to how best to do it without the hassle of either brittle hackery or the overhead of creating a key in a folder location that I consider my personal private space ?

Best.

P.S.: For now, using sed -i.bak '/spec.signing_key/s/^/#/' rb_sys.gemspec.

I'd accept a PR which removes the check with RUBYGEMS_FORCE_DISABLE_GEM_SIGNING=true env var check

Done. Do you need me to cut a new release or is git sha good enough?

The git sha is good enough.
