to get capistrano to work, just install it like normal, then use the export
path command below.
install using gem install capistrano... then verify it is near this
directory doing gem contents capistrano...maybe not necessary, but it helped
me.
r...@j-laptop:/home/j/rails/trunk# capify
bash: capify: command not found
r...@j-laptop:/home/j/rails/trunk# export PATH=$PATH:/var/lib/gems/1.8/bin
r...@j-laptop:/home/j/rails/trunk# capify
Please specify the directory to capify, e.g. `capify .'
r...@j-laptop:/home/j/rails/trunk# cap deploy
* executing `deploy'
* executing `deploy:update'
** transaction: start
* executing `deploy:update_code'
executing locally: "svn info http://finliteracy.org/svn/svn/trunk
-rHEAD"
