Ruby RPM Missing ri doc

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi All,

I installed Ruby via yum,

    sudo yum install ruby


and got this when quizzing ri,

   $ ri methods
   No ri documentation found in:

   Was rdoc run to create documentation?


   Installing Documentation
   ------------------------
   'ri' uses a database of documentation built by the RDoc utility.

   So, how do you install this documentation on your system? It depends on
   how you installed Ruby.

   _If you installed Ruby from source files_ (that is, if it some point you
   typed 'make' during the process :), you can install the
   RDocdocumentation yourself. Just go back to the place where you have
   your
   Ruby source and type

    make install-doc

   You'll probably need to do this as a superuser, as the documentation is
   installed in the Ruby target tree (normally somewhere under
   +/usr/local+.

   _If you installed Ruby from a binary distribution_ (perhaps using a
   one-click installer, or using some other packaging system), then the
   team that produced the package probably forgot to package the
   documentation as well. Contact them, and see if they can add it to the
   next release.



doing the following,

   sudo yum install | grep ruby*

   $ sudo yum list | grep ruby*

shows that there is a ruby-docs rpm. I'm assuming that that is what I need. I wish to ask, is this an oversight of the rpm maintainer or intended, perhaps? Makes ruby less productive if so, don't you think? I also rqn rdoc, but no change in error. Cheers.

Mark Sargent.
