pox_paginate-0.1.1 on rubygems.org is messed up

[tfe]

Just has a bunch of empty files where active_support, active_resource, etc. should be. Did it get messed up in packaging?

@tfe Does active_support.rb look like http://gist.github.com/600464 ?

Just looked into it more thoroughly. It seems like it is a permissions issue that causes the files to appear blank for me. When I download the .gem itself from gemcutter and extract it, the files are there. On the installed version of the gem, however, no users have access. Fixing this lets me see the file contents.

HOWEVER, I don't think it's just me. I had a friend try it on their machine and had the exact same behavior. We're both running OS X 10.6 though.

That's really odd - I'm running 10.6 myself and I'm able to see all the files. Are you able to see this file under the active_resource directory (just to make sure we're on the same page):
~/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.8.7-p174@pox/gems/pox_paginate-0.1.1/lib/pox_paginate λ ls active_resource ruby-1.8.7-p174@pox
xml_format.rb*

I'm able to see the file and cat its contents too.

The problem I found is that:

• when executing a SYSTEM install (not RVM) file permission in the 0.1.1 gem are incorrect:

  :/opt/ruby-enterprise-1.8.7-2010.01/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/pox_paginate-0.1.1/lib/pox_paginate$ ls -ltotal 36
  drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2011-06-15 17:59 active_resource
  -rwx------ 1 root root  214 2011-06-15 17:59 active_resource.rb
  drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2011-06-15 17:59 active_support
  -rwx------ 1 root root  245 2011-06-15 17:59 active_support.rb
  -rwx------ 1 root root   81 2011-06-15 17:59 remote_collection.rb
  drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2011-06-15 17:59 will_paginate
  -rwx------ 1 root root  227 2011-06-15 17:59 will_paginate.rb
  drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2011-06-15 17:59 xml_mini
  -rwx------ 1 root root  810 2011-06-15 17:59 xml_mini.rb
  

• when colleagues do an install in rvm, this does not hurt, since the
  owner of the file is the user himzelf, so the problem is masked
• I fixed it locally with:

  cd  /opt/ruby-enterprise-1.8.7-2010.01/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/pox_paginate-0.1.1
  sudo find . -type d -exec chmod a+rx {} \;
  sudo find . -type f -exec chmod a+r {} \;

I'll try to bundle the gem again to see if it solves the problem, though last time it didn't help.

[petervandenabeele]

Thanks.

I need to correct my previous posting of 2011-06-16.
Before the { and } in the 'find' command a back slash is needed,
but this probably got eaten by the comment module.

Trying again:

cd  /opt/ruby-enterprise-1.8.7-2010.01/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/pox_paginate-0.1.1
sudo find . -type d -exec chmod a+rx \{\} \;
sudo find . -type f -exec chmod a+r \{\} \;

@petervandenabeele I have released a new gem version 0.2.3 which works with rails 3.0.x.

I'll look into rails 2.3.x branch
