Subject: [ruby-core:29419] [Bug #3121] "make rdoc" fails

Issue #3121 has been updated by 404 why.


I got the same error message when I was using the RVM to install Ruby from trunk source. Hope it will be working ASAP! :)

~$ rvm install 1.9.2-head

~$ cat ~/.rvm/log/ruby-1.9.2-head/install.error.log

[2010-04-11 01:48:50] make install
uh-oh! RDoc had a problem:

Directory .ext/rdoc already exists, but it looks like it
isn't an RDoc directory. Because RDoc doesn't want to risk
destroying any of your existing files, you'll need to
specify a different output directory name (using the
--op <dir> option).

run with --debug for full backtrace
make: *** [rdoc] error 1


So I changed my mind to use ruby-1.9.2-preview1, just run the following command���

~$ rvm install 1.9.2 --head

It workes!
