Comment (by barracuda156):

 Replying to [comment:8 kimuraw]:
 > ppc Mac is not target of ruby-2.0 (released 2013) or later for ruby dev
 team.
 > ruby 2.6->2.7 and 2.7->3.0 contains many changes of core system.
 > I do not think we can let to work ruby2.7 or 3.x on ppc Mac with a
 little change to current code.

 > I'll set `supported_archs` into Portfiles.

 Maybe you could just leave it as is for now? It seems that there is no
 inherent problem with the ppc/ppc64 arch for Ruby, since FreeBSD has been
 building it:
 https://cgit.freebsd.org/ports/commit/?id=d87e3a4da8da560ab9a55150a5e71080543d4e38
 I will see if I can make it work.
