Hello Group,

I have place my gem file at:  
[http://rubyforge.org/projects/ruby-agi/](http://rubyforge.org/projects/ruby-agi/)

I thought, placeing any gem file in rubyforge would allow to execute  
gem install

I must missing something, otherwise I won’t see this:

[root@localhost ~]# gem install ruby-agi  
Attempting local installation of ‘ruby-agi’  
Local gem file not found: ruby-agi\*.gem  
Attempting remote installation of ‘ruby-agi’  
Updating Gem source index for: [http://gems.rubyforge.org](http://gems.rubyforge.org)  
ERROR: While executing gem … (Gem::GemNotFoundException)  
Could not find ruby-agi (\> 0) in the repository  
[root@localhost ~]#

I will truely appreciate your kind help.

Thanks,  
Mohammad

Hi Mohammad -

Hm, I think you’re hitting this problem:

would rubyforge server be happy with the package build with ruby-1.8.4?

Hi Mohammad -

Hm, I think so… although I haven’t tried it… but yes, I think that  
bug was fixed with 1.8.4.
