Updated Ruby And Rubygems Ipk Options

Ruby is up to 1.8.4, and an ipk file for rubygems would be handy.

I try a manual installation of RubyGems, and I get a string of errors.

The most interesting one seems to be:

/opt/QtPalmtop/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:29: in `require': libcrypto.so.0.9.6: cannot load shared object file: No such file or directory - /opt/QtPalmtop/lib/ruby/1.8/arm-linux/digest/md5.so (LoadError)

I'm going to check with the ruby-talk mailing list.. maybe I can solve the install problem.

fabianE reports:
I've compiled Ruby 1.8.4 including ri, gems and irb with auto-complete enabled. You can download it at http://mail.pdaxrom.org/contrib/fabian/ .

However, running "gem" gives:

/home/QtPalmtop/bin/gem:3 in `require': no such file to load -- rubygems (LoadError)

if I cd into

CODE

/home/QtPalmtop/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8

and I run it, I get a different error:

./rubygems.rb:51: warning: already initalized constant RubyGemsPackageVersion
./rubygems.rb:53: warning: already initalized constant DIRECTORIES

I'm not entirely sure if I have it working or not. =)

I've been using Cacko 1.23 so far, but perhaps I should switch over to pdaXrom 1.1.0beta4
