Rake bombs on openssl (on Ubuntu)

Rails

RoR-ers,

I’ve bumped into an issue with ruby and ssl.

I’m trying to run a rake command which aborts because it cannot find
openssl.rb.

I followed these steps:

  • mkdir /rho; chown phor /rho

  • wget ftp://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/1.8/ruby-1.8.7-p72.tar.bz2

  • tar jxf ruby-1.8.7-p72.tar.bz2

  • cd ruby-1.8.7-p72

  • vi ext/Setup and uncomment these lines:
    bigdecimal
    curses
    digest
    digest/md5
    digest/rmd160
    digest/sha1
    digest/sha2
    iconv
    openssl
    readline
    socket
    strscan
    thread
    zlib

  • ./configure --prefix=/rho

  • make

  • make install

  • create a 1-line file (in /rho/.rho) and then dot-it: export PATH=/
    rho/bin:${PATH}:.

I saw this:

$ /rho/bin/ruby -v
ruby 1.8.7 (2008-08-11 patchlevel 72) [x86_64-linux]

Next, I installed gems:

I saw this:

$ /rho/bin/gem -v
1.3.1

Next, I installed rails:

gem install rails --no-rdoc --no-ri

I saw this:

$ /rho/bin/rails -v
Rails 2.2.2

Next, I did this:

$ gem install rspec-rails rake --no-rdoc --no-ri

I saw this:

$ /rho/bin/gem list

*** LOCAL GEMS ***

actionmailer (2.2.2)
actionpack (2.2.2)
activerecord (2.2.2)
activeresource (2.2.2)
activesupport (2.2.2)
rails (2.2.2)
rake (0.8.3)
rspec (1.1.12)
rspec-rails (1.1.12)

Next, I did this:

cd ~/software/
git clone git://github.com/rhomobile/rhosync.git
mkdir log; touch log/development.log
/rho/bin/rake gems:install

I saw this:

(in /phor/software/rhosync)
rake aborted!
no such file to load – openssl
(See full trace by running task with --trace)

To me,
It looks like openssl.rb is missing somewhere.

I assume it should be under /rho which is where I installed ruby.

I’m on ubuntu-linux and I do see openssl development packages inside
of my OS:

$ apt-cache search libssl
cl-plus-ssl - A simple Common Lisp interface to OpenSSL
dcmtk - The OFFIS DICOM toolkit command line utilities
libdcmtk1 - The OFFIS DICOM toolkit runtime libraries
libdcmtk1-dev - The OFFIS DICOM toolkit development libraries and
headers
libssl-ocaml - OCaml bindings for OpenSSL
libssl-ocaml-dev - OCaml bindings for OpenSSL
libssl-dev - SSL development libraries, header files and documentation
libssl0.9.8 - SSL shared libraries
libssl0.9.8-dbg - Symbol tables for libssl and libcrypto

Also, I see this:

$ apt-cache search libopenssl-ruby
libopenssl-ruby - OpenSSL interface for Ruby
libopenssl-ruby1.9 - OpenSSL interface for Ruby 1.9
ruby1.8 - Interpreter of object-oriented scripting language Ruby 1.8
libopenssl-ruby1.8 - OpenSSL interface for Ruby 1.8

Clues anyone?

Doesn’t that just search for the package in your cached list of
package descriptions (rather than installed packages)
