Re: gem load problem

[Paul Harris]

Hi, I had the same problem (on Linux) with the json gem, but others gems have installed on Shoes OK. I got round the json problem by using json-shoes which was in the Shoes install directory when I built from the tarball (not git clone). Doesn't help you I'm afraid, but at least you know you are not alone. :-D Paul. PS. I've got raisins (0.r1134) [i586-linux] +video installed.

In my app, I'm trying to require the ruby debugger: Shoes.setup do gem 'ruby-debug' end When ran, I get: ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension. /usr/local/lib/shoes/shoes --ruby extconf.rb ./git_shoes.rb sh: /usr/local/lib/shoes/shoes: No such file or directory Gem files will remain installed in /home/royw/.shoes/+gem/gems/linecache-0.43 for inspection.

Any hints on how I should correct this? TIA, Roy
