Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gems
When I try to use gem directly with sudo, I get the following output: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo gem install fhlow [sudo] password for silwol: Bulk updating Gem source index for: http://gems.rubyforge.org ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem::GemNotFoundException) Could not find fhlow (> 0) in any repository [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ When I call it with a sudo'ed environment, it works: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo -s [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# gem install fhlow Bulk updating Gem source index for: http://gems.rubyforge.org Successfully installed fhlow-1.91.0 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# I don't know where the error lies, but in my opinion this should work from within sudo directly, because this is the usual way many people execute commands as root. ** Affects: gems (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- gem install does not work correctly with sudo https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/202446 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
