This seems like an overreaction that will do nothing but disservice your users, especially with 17,000+ downloads. Not saying it's not your choice to pull the gem, but it just feels to me like there's some other problem at work here.

I wish I could help more, sorry dude.

I literally don't have the energy to deal with rubygems problems anymore. I greatly respect and appreciate the folks involved and the problems being solved, but I can't deal with the frequent problems anymore.

I appreciate your efforts in debugging this, but I don't think there's anything left for me to do here. Using rubygems is a disservice to logstash users with the rubygems problems. New users will equate 'gem install' problems to poor release quality, and that hurts logstash.

Honestly, I should've introduced myself to the rubygems ticket system and community before I got burned out dealing with rubygems problems.

Thanks for your efforts.
