Bug 233612: Update devel/rubygem-jruby-jars to version 9.2.4.0
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D233612



--- Description ---
I originally had this as part of PR229163, but I am splitting it out becaus=
e I
think it points out a structural problem:

Ports depending on jruby should not depend at all on installing the native =
ruby
as they are generally incompatible: Newer jruby is compatible with ruby 2.5,
older jruby is compatible with ruby 2.3. We currently ship Ruby 2.4 as defa=
ult.
Furthermore jruby is faster than the regular Ruby and people may want to us=
e it
on it's own without other ruby versions interfering.

jruby ships with jgem which I am using for updating this port but my approa=
ch
is unelegant as we are still installing the alternative ruby infrastructure=
. A
clean structure should be devised as all ports that depend jruby (USES =3D =
jruby
?) are affected:

databases/rubygem-activerecord-jdbc-adapter
databases/rubygem-activerecord-jdbcmysql-adapter
databases/rubygem-jdbc-mysql
devel/rubygem-warbler
sysutils/puppetserver6
www/rubygem-jruby-rack
