This was just added in a PR (#36192), but it seems the python installation is no longer causing CI tests to break. Instead, this brew unlink command was throwing an error.

[traviswimer]

Basically, the problems I fixed to make Ruby 3.1.3 work are:

• bundle command was still using the wrong version of Ruby. Reinstalling the bundler gem fixes this.
• test_ios_rntester and prepare_package_for_release were failing because the pods were installed for the wrong version of Ruby. I added commands to install them within these jobs.

Now the tests are all passing.

test_ios_rntester and prepare_package_for_release must have previously been able to retrieve cached pods somehow, so maybe there is a better fix. Although, it looks like the CI workflows are still taking about the same amount of time to complete, so I'm not sure if it's worth worrying about.

Changes looks good to me, thank you for taking care of the bump!

@traviswimer could you condense the changelog lines into a single one? I think that the changelog tool could have an hard time in handling three different [GENERAL] [CHANGED] lines. Thank you!

[traviswimer]

@cipolleschi Sure, I updated it.

Hi @traviswimer. Thank you so much for this PR: it was extremely helpful and instrumental to kickstart an internal discussion with the React org about the DevX we want to provide related to Ruby.

Currently, we are enforcing a specific version of Ruby which push all our users to either update their current version of Ruby or install a Ruby version manager. This could be challenging, especially for new users that approaches React Native for the first time and for users that comes from a Web background and have no platform-specific knowledge.

After considering this use cases, we decided to adopt a less strict approach. From now on, React Native will try to support a wider range of Ruby versions, from the system Ruby (2.6.10) to the most recent one (although Cocoapods is not working right now with Ruby 3.2.0 due to a bug in their code... :( ). This should simplify the first experience for everyone, speeding up also the system setup.

Due to these consideration, we won't be able to merge this PR. However, thank you so much for the work you put into it and I hope you will still considering contributing to the project as we think that your contributions could help the framework improve.

Thank you so much! 🙇
