I understand Ruby 2.7 is EoL but I would like to revisit this.

The latest version of opentelemetry-exporter-otlp that supports Ruby 2.7 is 0.24.1 meaning people stuck on that version of Ruby are guaranteed to hit this

I really think this should be released as 0.24.2 to avoid the problem.

Released here https://rubygems.org/gems/opentelemetry-exporter-otlp/versions/0.24.2

or un-publish 0.24.1?

there is no simple way to un-publish gem and yanking is not really recommended

@robertlaurin Would it be possible to release this also as 0.24.2? Anyone who depended on ~> 0.24.0 (like us) will get a permanently broken version until they bump the version.

You can require opentelemetry/exporter/otlp/version before opentelemetry-exporter-otlp if your need it to work before the fix.

e.g.

require 'opentelemetry/exporter/otlp/version'
require 'opentelemetry-exporter-otlp'
