Is it safe to erase old ondemand-gem RPMs?

I have a plethera of older ondemand-gem rpms, going back to 1.7.11-1.7.11-1.el7.x86_64. Is there any reason to keep all these old gem RPMs around?

Nothing outside of OpenOnDemand uses ruby on my OOD servers.

If you are running 2.0.x, I would say you should be safe. If we have dependencies on those old RPMS, then we have a huge problem.

The RPMs are built as a stand alone unit base on Release number. you should be good to remove the old ones.

Please let us know if it causes you problems. :wink:

Thanks,
