Its a bug somewhere, but where exactly is uncertain still. Did source_cache already exist, or were these systems virgin? There have been problems with source_cache being hosed since RubyGems 0.9.0, but I'm unsure if that's due to RubyGems changes or Ruby changes. I'm trying to collect corrupt source_cache files to reproduce the problem. -- Eric Hodel - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://blog.segment7.net I LIT YOUR GEM ON FIRE! _______________________________________________ Rubygems-developers mailing list Rubygems-developers@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rubygems-developers
