Digest/md5 problem when using Net::SMTP

If I use the Net::SMTP module I get

/usr/local/bin/ruby -e ‘require “net/smtp”’

So this is with the latest stable ruby but I do have (results of find,
remove Perl etc refs):

/usr/local/lib/ruby/1.4/sparc-solaris2.7/md5.so
/usr/local/lib/ruby/1.6/sparc-solaris2.7/md5.so

So I have the md5 modules, but not in a digest dir. Searching with
Google for more info on this, I find it came up with 1.6.5, but the
information about this is in Japanese, so I don’t know what was done.

The ext/digest directory in the Source tree seems to have been made
successfully. How should I proceed?

It's odd that md5.so isn't in a digest directory. I'd suggest
upgrading, but you seem to be running a current version. It's odd
that Digest::MD5 isn't installed. Plain 'MD5' has been
depreciated/removed due to conflicting method names with external
libraries. That said, what are the odds of you trying to upgrade to
the latest 1.6? Something tells me your install is wonky. -sc

Yes.

that Digest::MD5 isn't installed. Plain 'MD5' has been

According the the main ruby site I have the latest (1.6.7 2002-03-01).
Could this be something to do with my previously having 1.4.3, 1.6.5,
and possibly other stable versions and it not clearing things out when
installing over the top? There doesn't seem to be an "uninstall" target
in the makefile for ruby. Should there be one? (RCR??)

        Thank you,

Verify when you compile ruby, that it make the extension ext/digest/md5

moulon% find /usr/local/lib/ruby/ -name md5.so -print
/usr/local/lib/ruby/1.4/sparc-solaris2.7/md5.so
/usr/local/lib/ruby/1.6/sparc-solaris2.7/md5.so
/usr/local/lib/ruby/1.6/sparc-solaris2.7/digest/md5.so
moulon%

1.6/sparc-solaris2.7/md5.so is the version for 1.6.4
1.6/sparc-solaris2.7/digest/md5.so is 1.6.7

Did this in the output you trimmed:

moulon% find /usr/local/lib/ruby/ -name md5.so -print
/usr/local/lib/ruby/1.4/sparc-solaris2.7/md5.so

Yes

/usr/local/lib/ruby/1.6/sparc-solaris2.7/md5.so
Yes

/usr/local/lib/ruby/1.6/sparc-solaris2.7/digest/md5.so
No.
moulon%

1.6/sparc-solaris2.7/md5.so is the version for 1.6.4
1.6/sparc-solaris2.7/digest/md5.so is 1.6.7

So why didn’t this get installed and how should I fix it?
Hence my point about make uninstall. I could than
do a make install and be sure of having a clean start.

Hmm. Yes, together with that it is rather suspicious…

OK, cleared that dir out, and completely re-installed ruby…

find /usr/local -type f -name “md5.so” -print

That looks better. It looks like I botched the install 2 ways last
time: I did it from my nfs-mounted home dir, which root on this machine
can’t write to during the install, so I got errors in extmk.rb;
I also had config information left over from the installation on the
other machines. It is amazing it has worked so well for so long!

Thank you for spotting this!
