As above, you don’t place it in the lib area manually. Let the
installer do the work. It will decide where to put the files (almost
certainly under lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/iowa/).The things you download should be versioned so you can have them
sitting side by side. The runtime files aren’t versioned as you can
only have one version installed at a time.
thanks gavin. there is an installer.
however i noticed that the installer didn’t automatically copy any docs. this is also the case for a few other packages i installed.
why don’t installers do that? do ruby application installers never copy docs to the ruby/docs folder. should i always do it manually? if so, why?
thanks again

I can’t stand cheap people. It makes me real mad when someone says something like, “Hey, when are you going to pay me that $100 you owe me?” or “Do you have that $50 you borrowed?” Man, quit being so cheap! - Jack handy
