Updating Package does not update new Ruby Versions list

[SheW0lf]

I use this plugin to manage my ruby versions, and a repo I constantly work in just updated to ruby 3.4.3. I ran asdf plugin update ruby per the docs, but then when I ran asdf list all ruby | grep 3.4 I got this:

1.8.7-p334
1.8.7-p374
1.9.3-p374
2.3.4
3.3.4
3.4.0-preview1
3.4.0-preview2
3.4.0-rc1
3.4.0
3.4-dev
3.4.1
3.4.2
jruby-9.3.4.0
rbx-3.4
rbx-3.40
rbx-3.41
rbx-3.42
rbx-3.43
rbx-3.44
rbx-3.45
rbx-3.46
rbx-3.47
rbx-3.48
rbx-3.49

No 3.4.3 in the list. After about 30 mins of troubleshooting, I decided to uninstall and re-install the plugin and now I see 3.4.3 in the list.
So it appears that the asdf plugin update ruby does not actually update the ruby versions that are available for download.

I'm hitting the same issue and for some reason the ASDF_RUBY_BUILD_VERSION in ~/.asdf/plugins/ruby/lib/utils.sh is downgraded? I didn't do this manually:

Exactly, the solution was to hard reset back and pull the latest changes. Now it works fine

I'm seeing the same dirty state in the plugin folder after running asdf plugin update ruby. What version of asdf are you all using? I saw this behavior with 0.16.7.

I suspect it's an asdf issue, rather than a Ruby plugin issue, but I don't know enough about the inner workings to know for sure.

Same problem here - seems like this is a real issue for everybody. Also using 0.6.17 of asdf via homebrew.

[kreintjes]

Same problem over here. I'm also using asdf 0.16.7.

rnestler's suggestion fixed it :)

This fixed it for me:

$ rm -r ~/.asdf/installs/ruby/3.4.3
$ ASDF_RUBY_BUILD_VERSION=master asdf install ruby 3.4.3

This worked for me. Is it possible one or more the following .gitconfig options could be related to the issue, e.g. by unexpectedly stashing/popping a change onto the updated ruby-build branch? Do others experiencing this have these in their config as well?

[pull]

It seems that asdf should at least output some kind of error when there are staged changes in a plugin and you're running update
