On the machine in question (Fedora 5) I performed the steps from the tutorial. Similar result; this time during search instead of insert: irb(main):002:0> require 'rubygems' => true irb(main):003:0> require 'ferret' => true irb(main):004:0> include Ferret => Object irb(main):005:0> index = Index::Index.new => #<Ferret::Index::Index:0xb7cd6524> irb(main):006:0> index << "this is a new document to be indexed" => #<Ferret::Index::Index:0xb7cd6524> irb(main):007:0> index << ["and here", "is another", "new document", "to index"]=> #<Ferret::Index::Index:0xb7cd6524> irb(main):008:0> index << {:title => "Programming Ruby", :content => "blah blah blah"} => #<Ferret::Index::Index:0xb7cd6524> irb(main):009:0> index << {:title => "Programming Java", :content => "yada yada yada"} => #<Ferret::Index::Index:0xb7cd6524> irb(main):010:0> index.search "document" (irb):10: [BUG] Segmentation fault ruby 1.8.4 (2005-12-24) [i386-linux] So my problem lies within ferret. Any ideas what I should try from here?
