Hello Tim, I ran into the same issue and Joshua suggested using an exec. It works great. I may also change all my gem installs to use this since the package provider also tries to install again if there's multiple versions. Like with
capistrano (2.5.3, 2.1.0). <- can't tell 2.1.0 is installed. http://groups.google.com/group/puppet-users/browse_thread/thread/6d4429c33bbdbb1d/cdc8c00b50b51eb9#cdc8c00b50b51eb9 I also found an old bug for this same issue. And another one about not being able to provide arguments to gem install. http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/show/1398 http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/show/1597 Gary On Jan 1, 1:13 am, "Tim Harper" <timchar...@gmail.com> wrote: > Well, apparently nobody knows an easy solution.<div><br></div><div>I > ended up create my own ruby-enterprise-mysql rpm package, and all my > troubles went away.
