Motivation
RubyGems installs executable binstubs that sometimes bake the Ruby version. When the Ruby version for the project is updated, if the version manager reuses that path for any reason, we crash on boot because the baked version doesn't match the one actually being used.
Implementation
The fix is to invoke
gem pristine ruby-lsp --only-executables --env-shebangwhen Ruby gets upgraded. To achieve that, we need to remember a slightly more complex update state, so that this is triggered not only when a certain amount of time passed, but when Ruby gets an upgrade too.FYI: I cut v0.10.5-preview to test out the changes before cutting a stable release.
