Rubygems fail - require hpricot!

Rails
1

Hi guys,
I wanted to fetch some info from webpage and use it in my db. I read
hpricot is one way to do it. But the problem is I’m unable to use it
with my app. For some reason after successfully installing hpricot it
fails when I try to use it in the rails console.

I’ve been trying to fix this for the last four-five days. I’m stumped !
I tried re-installing everything and still cant go past the error. Can
some one please help me, I really appreciate it !

I have put down all the info below, I’m running mac os - snow leopard. I
see the same problem on centOS 5.5 too :frowning:
