Bug #20687
openDoes tarball require baseruby?
Description
From https://github.com/rbenv/ruby-build/issues/2435
I'm wondering why tarball use system ruby with above environment. In my understanding, tarball don't need baseruby.
Is it intentional?

In that case, the system ruby is used to re-check encoding sources and update encdb.h if needed.
Encodings under enc directory will be added to encdb.h automatically by template/encdb.h.tmpl file.
We assume that the cost to re-check using ruby is much less than the cost for rebuild all encodings, or the cost to re-check using other than ruby.
Another assumption is that the system ruby provides full of bundled libraries, ArchLinux is not the case apparently.
I'll add a check that the system ruby matches our assumption.

Why miniruby is not used for that purpose?
