I know this is incomplete and some tests still fail, but it's a start. |

I pushed your branch to the OpenVoxProject repo, so I can kick off the build action: https://github.com/OpenVoxProject/openvox/actions/runs/21248923654 |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Note to self: I don't know if exitstatus is properly set here. https://rubyapi.org/3.4/o/io#method-c-popen doesn't mention setting $CHILD_STATUS, only $?.
RuboCop rightfully complains about using open() to spawn a process. This uses the way simpler IO.popen() method.

Rebased to resolve conflicts. With OpenVox 9 coming, perhaps a good time to merge this? |

I have no idea if this is going to break or not and whether it's an API breakage.
