A few days ago dependabot updated ffi in my repo to 1.11.0. Yesterday, 1.11.0 was yanked. I only noticed this after trying to run a bundle install locally, which failed.

Should Dependabot run an 'emergency' update across all repositories when a gem is yanked like this, in the same way it does for major security updates?

See also dependabot/feedback#471.

In this case, 1.11.0 was yanked and 1.11.1 was released, I’m not sure if it’d be a common occurrence that a version is yanked but no new version is immediately released, but maybe worth considering a downgrade strategy?

I imagine dependabot isn’t really built with downgrading in mind, though, so probably not worth the trouble :)
