Hello.  
I download ruby to the ruby-build directory from cvs, install it and  
want to make a html documentation.  
yuray@keeper:/host/p3/b/ruby-build$ ruby --version  
ruby 1.9.0 (2005-11-18) [i686-linux]  
yuray@keeper:/host/p3/b/ruby-build$ rdoc --all --op /tmp/ruby-doc  
…

All is seems OK.  
But opening file:///tmp/ruby-doc/index.html in the browser I can not  
find documenation about  
drb (drb directory is absent in the Files section).

If I run rdoc in the lib/drb, then it is be generated.  
yuray@keeper:/host/p3/b/ruby-build/lib/drb$ rdoc

```
                     extserv.rb: mc....c...
                         acl.rb: cc....c.......
                         drb.rb:

```

Why rdoc not make the documentation for drb from topdir ruby sources ?  
How can I force the rdoc make the ALL documentation ?

Remove all “.document” files from any directories (e.g. the lib and ext  
directories).

Search the list for “rdoc” for more info - this question was answered  
recently.

Cheers,
