[MacRuby-devel] hotcocoa not loading cocoa framework

[Robert Schaaf]

Hello Laurent,

Here's a curious story.  This afternoon I watched you and Rich Kilmer  
at RubyConf (very interesting for all that you promised) and was  
impressed by the macirb app.  I tried to build it, but macrake  
failed.  Curiously, this must have given a shock to the heart of my  
shell, because now hotcocoa loads just fine.  Fortuitous perhaps, but  
sadly, not a learning experience.

Since you asked, here's my environment anyway.

Thanks again to all,

Bob Schaaf

PS Let's hope the fix lasts.
