OK, I'm on the right track now, but the rake features:mysql fails
(before any of my changes, I should note).  I can run rake spec fine
and ruby contribute.rb also went fine.  The problem seems to be that
no index is being built as the failures are mostly like this:

    Then I should get 1 result                           # features/
step_definitions/common_steps.rb:135
      expected: 1,
           got: 0 (using ==)
      Diff:
      @@ -1,2 +1,2 @@

      features/searching_with_find_arguments.feature:41:in `Then I

although occasionally they look like this:

any advice?
