Ri odd behavior

Ruby

Hello,

How would you correct this “bug” in ri ?

~> ri Object#tap
More than one method matched your request. You can refine
your search by asking for information on one of:

Object#tap, Object#tap

There seem to be no difference between the two proposed strings so I
have no way to access either one of them.

Cheers,

Trunk is ok. I’ve tested it here and it doesn’t show that bug.

Could you send the ruby version you’re using, so that this can be
tracked?

$ ruby -v
ruby 1.9.3dev (2010-07-21 trunk 28695) [x86_64-linux]

Sure:

~>ruby -v
ruby 1.8.7 (2009-06-12 patchlevel 174) [universal-darwin10.0]

Could it be some installed gem that override the Object#tap method and
confuse ri ?

Thanks,

you have 2 installs of the rdoc/ri info. Do this:

% locate cdesc-Array.yaml | grep system
