issue updating squeel with active admin, polyamorous, activerecord

Question

I've got a project that is a couple of years old (rails 4) that I'm trying to update (all for the sake of active admin's datetime select not working) -- when I comment out the need to update squeel it all updates fine; but if I uncomment out squeel so that it too updates I get these dependency issues:

Bundler could not find compatible versions for gem "activerecord":

In Gemfile: acts-as-taggable-on was resolved to 4.0.0, which depends on activerecord (>= 4.0)

annotate was resolved to 2.7.1, which depends on
  activerecord (< 6.0, >= 3.2)

friendly_id (~> 5.1.0) was resolved to 5.1.0, which depends on
  activerecord (>= 4.0.0)

pg_search was resolved to 1.0.6, which depends on
  activerecord (>= 3.1)

polyamorous was resolved to 1.3.1, which depends on
  activerecord (>= 3.0)

polyamorous was resolved to 1.3.1, which depends on
  activerecord (>= 3.0)

rails (~> 4.2.1) was resolved to 4.2.1, which depends on
  activerecord (= 4.2.1)

rails-erd was resolved to 1.4.7, which depends on
  activerecord (>= 3.2)

random_record was resolved to 0.0.8, which depends on
  activerecord (>= 3.0.0)

squeel was resolved to 0.5.0, which depends on
  activerecord (~> 3.1.0.alpha)

Bundler could not find compatible versions for gem "polyamorous": In Gemfile: polyamorous

ransack was resolved to 1.8.1, which depends on
  polyamorous (~> 1.3)

squeel was resolved to 0.8.10, which depends on
  polyamorous (~> 0.5.0)

Bundler could not find compatible versions for gem "sass": In Gemfile: bootstrap-sass (~> 3.1.1) was resolved to 3.1.1.1, which depends on sass (~> 3.2)

activeadmin was resolved to 1.0.0.pre4, which depends on
  bourbon was resolved to 4.0.0, which depends on
    sass (~> 3.3)

sass-rails (~> 4.0.1) was resolved to 4.0.5, which depends on
  sass (~> 3.2.2)

I've tried a few different combinations of active admin such as:

# gem 'activeadmin', '~> 1.0.0.pre2'
# gem 'activeadmin', github: 'activeadmin'
gem 'activeadmin', github: 'gregbell/active_admin'

or

# gem 'ransack',             github: 'ernie/ransack'
gem 'inherited_resources', github: 'josevalim/inherited_resources'
gem 'formtastic',          github: 'justinfrench/formtastic'
gem 'chosen-rails'
gem 'select2-rails'
gem 'active_admin_datetimepicker'
gem "active_admin-sortable_tree"
gem 'polyamorous', github: 'activerecord-hackery/polyamorous'
gem 'ransack', github: 'activerecord-hackery/ransack'

and

# gem "squeel"  # Last officially released gem
# gem 'squeel', github: 'activerecord-hackery/squeel'
# gem "squeel", :git => "git://github.com/ernie/squeel.git" # Track git repo

But nothing seems to be working....

You aren't trying to upgrade to rails 5 by any chance, are you? — Nick Schwaderer, Aug 03 '16 at 11:58

While I'm still at it (Rails 5 upgrade) you might want to try adding activeresource to your Gemfile explicitly. Like so:

gem 'activeresource', github: 'rails/activeresource'

gem 'activeadmin', github: 'activeadmin'
gem 'devise', '~> 3.4.1'

The update did work for me, at least so far, and without using additional dependencies such as ransack, draper etc. even though it is recommended to on their (ActiveAdmin's) official README.

Give it a try.
