Edit: A workaround is to fork asdf-ruby and ruby-build to add the updates yourself.

The plugin hasn't updated its ruby-build version yet.

By default asdf-ruby uses a recent release of ruby-build, however instead you can choose your own branch/tag through the ASDF_RUBY_BUILD_VERSION variable:

ASDF_RUBY_BUILD_VERSION=master asdf install ruby 3.4.4

Don't even need to fork. Ruby-build can load definition files from multiple locations. You can make the definition file yourself without even forking.

Ruby 3.4.4 has been released in ruby-build repo : rbenv/ruby-build#2535 (comment)

[kakikubo]

This is how I was able to resolve the issue on my end:

% asdf plugin remove ruby
% asdf plugin add ruby
% asdf list all ruby | grep 3.4.4
3.4.4

I believe the same issue occurred before as well.

Adding some documentation to ruby-build for how to install a version of ruby that might not yet be bundled in ruby-build: rbenv/ruby-build#2537

Might be worthwhile to document the following in asdf-ruby as well. (Even better, if asdf-ruby bundled its own directory that was prepended to RUBY_BUILD_DEFINITIONS, and allowed users to drop custom defs in there without mutating any variables. Wouldn't need to be exported if the var were set by asdf-ruby plugin prior to invoking ruby-build commands.)

# could be any directory, but would be best if bundled by asdf-ruby
export RUBY_BUILD_DEFINITIONS=/opt/asdf/share/ruby-build

# "custom" build definition in that shared location:
$ cat $RUBY_BUILD_DEFINITIONS/3.4.4 
install_package "openssl-3.0.16" "https://github.com/openssl/openssl/releases/download/openssl-3.0.16/openssl-3.0.16.tar.gz#57e03c50feab5d31b152af2b764f10379aecd8ee92f16c985983ce4a99f7ef86" openssl --if needs_openssl:1.0.2-3.x.x

$ asdf install ruby 3.4.4

[bjliu]

same issue with 3.4.5, had to follow @kakikubo's instructions.

[n-rodriguez]

same issue with 3.4.5, had to follow @kakikubo's instructions.

did you try this : asdf plugin update --all ?

[Virus-X]

Same here, asdf plugin update --all did not help, however, the workaround mentioned in #442
worked flawlessly, without the need of reinstalling anything:

cd ~/.asdf/plugins/ruby/
git reset .
git restore .
git pull

[michaeldhopkins]

asdf plugin update ruby and asdf plugin update --all didn't work for me to resolve this issue for 3.4.5. Nor did Virus-X's clean git pull steps. I had to run kakikubo's

asdf plugin remove ruby
asdf plugin add ruby

[aep-sunlife]

Still missing v3.4.7.

[MatheusRich]

I just moved to mise instead. Not the solution to this problem, the migration is pretty easy.

[wrburgess]

I moved, as well. I liked asdf over the years, but I can't fool around with waiting on ruby upgrades like this anymore.
