Description
Also 2.7 is EOL for 2.5 years, I think such warnings or minor inconveniences are OK, and it would only affect 2.7 users keeping
ppupdated. So maybe it would be fine to do nothing?I encountered test failures by this warning at bigdecimal with ruby 2.7.
Well, I agree that 2.7 support will not matter nowadays, and propose the dropping it, like as 2-4 in https://github.com/ruby/pp/issues/51#issuecomment-3368162006.
So new plan is:
- release 0.6.3, the final version for ruby 2.
- bump up to 0.7.0.
- drop the support for ruby 2.
- revert https://github.com/ruby/pp/pull/53 (optional).

Research direction
Start by reviewing the release and version configuration for 0.6.3 and 0.7.0, then inspect the Ruby 2 compatibility references and the changes in pull request #53. Check the bigdecimal-related test failure mentioned in the issue. Done means releasing the final Ruby 2-compatible version, bumping to 0.7.0, dropping Ruby 2 support, and deciding whether to revert #53.
