#313: "sudo rake install" fails with ArgumentError -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- Reporter: dmitry@… | Owner: lsansonetti@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: MacRuby 0.5 Component: MacRuby | Keywords: -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- sudo rake install fails on one of my machines: {{{ ./miniruby instruby.rb --make="/usr/bin/make" --dest-dir="" --extout=".ext" --mflags="" --make-flags="" --data-mode=0644 --prog-mode=0755 --installed-list .installed.list --mantype="doc" --sym-dest-dir="/usr/local" given string has unrecognized encoding (ArgumentError) rake aborted! Command failed with status (1): [./miniruby instruby.rb --make="/usr/bin/ma...] }}} I've tracked the problem down to {{{val.gsub!(/\$\$|\$\(([^()]+)\)|\$\{([^{}]+)\}/) do}}} in rbconfig.rb, where it throws the exception on the first argument ( {{{val = "$(datarootdir)/doc/$(PACKAGE)}}}" ). MacRuby-trunk svn revision 2359 Mac OS X 10.5.8 rake, version 0.8.7 MacBookPro2,1 On another machine (MacBook Air) it doesn't fail and installs OK. Am I doing something wrong? Please let me know if you need more information. -- Ticket URL: <http://www.macruby.org/trac/ticket/313> MacRuby <http://macruby.org/>
