Unable to setup new rails project with ffc as an engine

Environment:

Ruby: 2.7.5 Rails: 6.1.7 OS: Ubuntu Bundler: 2.3.10

I have created a new rails project. Added fat-free-crm gem dependency. While running bundle install I am getting the following error.

I was also getting the following error a while ago.

  In Gemfile:

    fat_free_crm was resolved to 0.20.1, which depends on

I tried everything. Cleanup the gemset, changing rails version, bundler version. Nothing works.

I'm receiving the same error. I reinstalled Rails 6.0.0 and then received this error after running bundle install.

Yes, I solved this in my rails project with FFCRM as engine, by adding the following to the main project Gemfile:

gem 'acts_as_commentable', git: 'https://github.com/fatfreecrm/acts_as_commentable.git', branch: 'rails-61'

The issue appears to be the fact that gemspec files don't allow pegging to git or git branches (correct me if I'm wrong on this!) So in this case, fat_free_crm.gemspec can't peg acts_as_commentable to branch rails-61. Perhaps we could release our version of acts_as_commentable as a gem and peg to that. I see there have been attempts to get Zendesk to update upstream, but they haven't done anything.

Thanks for porting it, @CloCkWeRX
