Since the current script already includes the line: sudo gem install mysql2
it must be that "mysql2" depends upon either json or rdoc...or maybe both. I will be testing that theory tonight. In other news....KUbuntu 11.10 (64 bit version) has a "bug" during initial installation and the first major updating process after installation. I was finally able to fix the problem and will be writing another script called "FixMyInstall.bash". I'm sure that this bug will be fixed by April 26, 2012 (release date for Ubuntu 12.04 and KUbuntu 12.04). But in the mean time I'm certain that this bug is causing widespread problems for many KUbuntu users. Apparently it is due to "incompatibilities of KUbuntu 11.10 with certain motherboards", but two different motherboards at my home both exhibit the same problem...so my guess is that this problem is quite common. The symptom is that after installing KUbuntu 11.10, it is necessary on some machines to hold down the power button for 3 seconds to reboot the machine. Later during the first update process, after downloading all the update files and beginning the installation process, the process "hangs" at 58% and the updating tools cease to function properly. Any attempt to install new software packages also fails. This is the bug that has delayed my testing of your script for a while! Fortunately, I now have a complete solution and will create another script to make things easier for others who may also be having the same problem.

All you have to do is add them to a "sudo gem install" line. Here is the exact text sudo gem install json rdoc mysql2 But possibly it would just work with sudo gem install mysql2 because the others might be dependecies of mysql2. If you remove all gems with sudo gem list | cut -d" " -f1 | xargs sudo gem uninstall -aIx and you execute the modified script, then you can test if it will work with the simpler command or if it needs to be the long one. Please notice that the error message is "expecting" version 0.2.17 of mysql2, not 0.2.18! > mysql2 (~> 0.2.17) means that version or newer. Please avoid top-posting. It is easier to read when your response is right after the portion of the text you are answering. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Hobo Users" group.
