Summary: Gem::InstallError when running gem clean in osx 10.5.5 (v.1.3.1)
Initial Comment:
Since updating to ruygems 1.3.1 (from 1.2) whenever I run
sudo gem clean
I get the following message for any gem version that comes bundled with leopard:
Cleaning up installed gems...
Attempting to uninstall ferret-0.11.4
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem::InstallError)
Unknown gem ferret = 0.11.4
With rubygems 1.2 it used to just skip over the pre-installed gems when I tried
to clean and then carried on cleaning up the other gems. Now, because of this
error it stops straight away meaning I have to do all of my cleanup by hand a
gem at a time.
Initially I though my gems were broken, but if I drop back down to rubygems 1.2
everything works fine, and in the interests of being thorough this problem also
persists after I do a clean install of the entire operating system.
This is the output of "gem env"

What was the fix. Is there a patch available? or should I do a gem update
--system?

Message:
I am on a MacBook OS X 10.5.6 and I am having the same issues with
clean/cleanup as noted in this ticket. I also can not get uninstall to work
either. I would hazard a guess it has the same issues that cleanup does.
Any ETA when this will be set right? I'm starting a new project and would like
to get my house in order.
Also I have GEM_HOME=/Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8 set in my shell
Thanks in advance
John

Grr, the logic should be:

Alright, digging through this some more has revealed some deeper fundamental
issues. But, let's step back to the immediate fix.
The first thing to to is to add a '-i' option to cleanup_command.rb. Not only
is it more convenient, it eliminates the need to hard code the install_dir in
the super call. That's something we don't want hard coded.
The next thing to do is to modify uninstaller.rb so that it iterates over
Gem.path, unless the -i option is specified, in which case _only_ that path
will be cleaned. Previously it was defaulting to a hard coded install_dir,
which was set to Gem.dir.
So, our logic for the uninstall method looked something like this:
paths.each do |path|
if @options[:install_dir]
paths = [...@options[:install_dir]]
else
paths = Gem.path.uniq
end
path = File.expand_path(path)
spec_dir = File.join(path, 'specifications')
unless File.exists?(spec_dir)
raise ArgumentError, "path '#{spec_dir}' not found"
end
source_index = Gem::SourceIndex.from_gems_in(spec_dir)
list = source_index.find_name(@gem, @version)
...
Unfortunately, what I've discovered is that the dependency list (in
dependency_list.rb) once again only checks in Gem.dir, not every Gem.path,
causing it to blow up with:

My initial attempt to just return if not found didn't work. I tried this in
uninstaller.rb:
if list.empty? then
return
But, it never seems to actually clean the gem, though it gives the impression
that it did:
c:\staging\gems>gem clean

C:/Ruby/bin/gem:24
The problem is that 'gem clean' is detecting that there's an older gem in one
of my gem paths, but it proceeds to assume that it's in _every_ gem path. When
it can't find it in one of the other paths it blows up.
Working on it...
