Hi,
I am working with those who are trying to package rubygems (for a gui
installation package on OSX) and I think I may have found a bug in
the post-install hook (which installs the "sources" gem). It seems
that the post-install hook doesn't honor the install-prefix (in
@options['install-prefix']). So doing this:
ruby setup.rb config --prefix=/usr/local
ruby setup install --prefix=../stage
...installs rubygems in ../stage/usr/local/, but automatically
installs the sources gem is in /usr/local/.
I'm working on a patch for this, hopefully I'll have time to figure
out exactly what's going on here (my first couple fixes didn't work.)
cheers,
Mark
