1.8.6 and kwargs

It looks like we still have to require 'fox16/kwargs' or
else:

$ ruby dirlist.rb
dirlist.rb:12:in `initialize': wrong argument type Hash
(expected Data) 
(TypeError)
         from dirlist.rb:12:in `initialize'
         from dirlist.rb:55:in `new'
         from dirlist.rb:55:in `run'
         from dirlist.rb:64

Or did something go wrong in the gem update?

Seems OK here -- what do you get when you type:

    ruby -e "require 'fox16'; puts
Fox.fxrubyversion"

?

Good question. That was _one_ problem:

$ ruby -e "require 'fox16'; puts
Fox.fxrubyversion"
1.6.2

After cleaning out the old stuff, there's still a problem:
installing 
the gem doesn't install the .so. It looks like something in
the 
makefile. Here's the output of the gem install:


$ cat gem_make.out
ruby extconf.rb install fxruby
checking for sys/time.h... yes
checking for signal.h... yes
... <snip> ...
checking for gluNewQuadric() in -lGLU... yes

make install
make: Nothing to be done for `install'.

make clean



So the .so gets built but never installed. Why is this
happening? I 
think it's because the makefile has these lines:

RUBYLIBDIR = 
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/fxruby-1.6.8/ext/fox16$(ta
rget_prefix)
RUBYARCHDIR = 
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/fxruby-1.6.8/ext/fox16$(ta
rget_prefix)

and so install is a no-op because the .so is already where
it's supposed 
to be.

I don't understand why extconf.rb would be generating things
this way. 
It's not normal for gems. For example, the ncurses gem's
extconf.rb 
generates these lines:

RUBYLIBDIR = 
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/ncurses-0.9.1/lib$(target_
prefix)
RUBYARCHDIR = 
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/ncurses-0.9.1/lib$(target_
prefix)

And so the install succeeds.

When I install fxruby from tarball, everything is ok. The
Makefile has 
reasonable settings for RUBYLIBDIR/RUBYARCHDIR.

Joel,

This was a bug in RubyGems that was fixed in version 0.9.1
or 0.9.2.
I'm having a lot of trouble with slowness on my internet
connection
this morning, or I'd look it up for you. But the short
answer is:
Upgrade to the latest RubyGems, and then FXRuby should build
properly
from the gem.

Hope this helps,

Lyle

Sigh. The moral of this story is: Don't try to rush a
release out the
door on a Monday morning. ;)

FXRuby 1.6.10 is now up in the usual places. Sorry for the
inconvenience, everybody.
