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:

QUOTE

/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:

QUOTE

/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:

QUOTE

./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

Installing rubygems from source hasn't worked out. I can get it to install, although I get an error with the post-install. 'gem' runs, but I cannot instally any gems with it. I get:

ERROR: Error installing gem (filename)[.gem]: invalid date

Hello,

the reason is probably that you use Cacko Rom, and not pdaxrom. My version of ruby was compiled for the later, so it probably won't work.

If you have another install of ruby for your rom and have problems with installing gems, you may lack some development packages or additional libraries.

Regards,

Fabian

Ruby 1.8.6 is out.

I'm using weeXpc now, which is pdaXrom-based, so I'll try rubygems one more time.

Using ruby 1.8.4, I was able to get rubygems 0.9.4 working.

It gave some odd warnings while I ran the setup, and it paused for a *long* time and then gave 'terminated', but running 'gem' seems to work.,
