[Ferret] Test failures for ferret tagged REL-0.10.14

Ruby Apps Ferret

Hi Dave,

I’ve been getting some segment faults while running my tests using
0.10.14 gem so I decided to package the gem locally to add -dH and
generate core dumps for you.

So I followed instructions here
http://ferret.davebalmain.com/trac/wiki/DownloadCurrent and first off
ran the tests.

I’m getting the following failures. (see this pastie
Parked at Loopia).

I don’t suppose these are expected but I thought I may as well let you
know.

Regards,

Saimon

Also:

saimon@iris ~/tmp $ irb
require ‘rubygems’
=> false
require_gem ‘ferret’, ‘>=0.10.14’
=> true
puts Ferret::VERSION
0.9.6
=> nil

What’s also strange when using the locally packaged gem is the
following:

saimon@iris ~/tmp $ irb
require ‘rubygems’
=> false
require_gem ‘ferret’,‘>= 0.10.14.1’ #I packaged it as
=> true
require ‘ferret’
=> false
Ferret
=> Ferret
Ferret::Index
=> Ferret::Index
Ferret::Index::FieldInfos
NameError: uninitialized constant Ferret::Index::FieldInfos
from (irb):7

For some reason it can’t find Ferret::Index::FieldInfos. ???

Maybe it’s the way I packaged it but I simply did:

I just used gem package REL=0.10.14.1
sudo gem install pkg/ferret-0.10.14.1.gem

This, and the Ferret::VERSION thing, are both symptomatic of you having
packaged 0.9.6 rather than 0.10.14.

The SVN directions on the Ferret page are wrong. You actually need to
do

svn co svn://www.davebalmain.com/exp ferret

to get the latest version

Hi William,

Actually what I downloaded was :

svn co svn://davebalmain.com/ferret/tags/REL-0.10.14 ferret_0.10.4

and Ferret::VERSION was 0.9.6 in that version.

Is this still not correct?

it should state the correct versipn, at least my 0.10.14 installed via
rubygems does:

irb(main):001:0> require ‘rubygems’
=> true
irb(main):002:0> require ‘ferret’
=> true
irb(main):003:0> Ferret::VERSION
=> “0.10.14”
irb(main):004:0>

Hm. I’m not sure at this point. There’s an svn log message there saying
that Dave tagged release 0.10.14, but the code sure looks like 0.9.6.

The code in the svn repository I pointed to looks much more recent.
I could be completely confused though.
