在carrierwave gem上捆绑安装错误

Question

I am trying to install a gem(carrierwave) and when I use the command bundle install I am having an error like this:

Invalid gemspec in [/home/sup1re/superrrr/vendor/bundle/ruby/1.8/specifications/carrierwave-0.6.2.gemspec]: Illformed requirement ["# 1.1.4"]

And

Installing carrierwave (0.6.2) Invalid gemspec in [/home/sup1re/superrrr/vendor/bundle/ruby/1.8/specifications/carrierwave-0.6.2.gemspec]: Illformed requirement ["# 1.1.4"]

I also trien to run the " gem update --system "

and I got this error

Specs:

ruby 1.8.7 (2011-02-18 patchlevel 334) [x86_64-linux]

Rails 3.2.3

Gem version is 1.8.5

I wonder what is the problem with my Gemfile.

Any comments are very welcome. Thank you.

Here is the carrierwave-0.6.2.gemspec that causes the error

Answer 1

You need to update Rubygems, this is not a carrierwave issue. sudo gem update --system or gem update --system depends on your setup.

Answer 2

You need to update rubygems, but first you need to fix the broken gemspecs.

Open .../specifications/carrierwave-0.6.2.gemspec in an editor, and remove all instances of #<YAML::Syck::DefaultKey:0x718a860d0a98> . (Or sed -i 's/#<.*> //' blah.gemspec .)

Then run gem update --system as described elsewhere.

For me this problem arose with the version of Ruby I was using with RVM. When attempting to install the carrierwave gem in ruby 1.8.7 it failed and my app was using ruby 1.9.3.

I resolved it by having the file .rvmrc in the root level of my app have the correct version of ruby I needed:

rvm use ruby-1.9.3-p385
