Hi,

I’ve been reading about the many openssl ruby bindings problems on  
Ubuntu and Debian and their solutions to the following problem:

/usr/local/lib/ruby/site\_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom\_require.rb:27:in  
`gem_original_require': no such file to load -- openssl (LoadError) from /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/ custom_require.rb:27:in`require’  
from -e:1

Unfortunately I’m on Fedora Core 5 with ruby 1.8.5 and I can’t seem to  
locate the openssl ruby bindings for FC5 (i’ve tried yum).

I know I need both the openssl libraries and the bindings for ruby for  
it to work.

Does anyone know a work around? Or can I get the files from a Debian  
install and copy them or something to that extent?

At [http://rpm.pbone.net](http://rpm.pbone.net) there are FC5 ruby-libs rpms containing  
all the openssl files.

We develop, watch us RoR, in numbers too big to ignore.
