Hello Guys,
I have multiple versions of ruby installed, ranging from 1.8.5 to
1.8.6, p114 and p368.
To reduce duplication of common used gems, I set both GEM_HOME and
GEM_PATH to my user folder:
D:/Users/Luis/.gem/ruby/1.8
I can run rake or any other gem without any kind of issue.
I've noticed that when running some RubyGems test, rake is invoked,
and is failing:
18) Error:
test_path_ok_eh_legacy(TestGemUninstaller):
Gem::Installer::ExtensionBuildError: ERROR: Failed to build gem native
extension.
D:/Users/Luis/ruby/ruby-1.8.6-p368-i386-mingw32/bin/ruby.exe
mkrf_conf.rb --build_arg1 --build_arg2
rake RUBYARCHDIR=D:/Temp/test_rubygems_2712/gemhome/gems/a-2/lib
RUBYLIBDIR=D:/Temp/test_rubygems_2712/gemhome/gems/a-2/lib
D:/Users/Luis/ruby/ruby-1.8.6-p368-i386-mingw32/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:636:in
`report_activate_error': Could not find RubyGem rake (>= 0)

from

`activate'
from
D:/Users/Luis/ruby/ruby-1.8.6-p368-i386-mingw32/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:49:in
`gem'
from D:/Users/Luis/.gem/ruby/1.8/bin/rake:18
The rake from my GEM_HOME is invoked, but looks like ENV['GEM_HOME']
and 'GEM_PATH' were tweaked, so it can no longer find that gem, thus
failing.
I wonder if this could affect other applications too, and what could
ge the workaround besides .gemrc, since I've also 1.9.1 and want to
avoid mixing the gem repositories between the two.
Thank you,
