Hi Eric,

I'm running my Ruby compilation as a cron job and fails on "make rdoc", saying following:

/src/lib/rdoc/ri/paths.rb:22:in `expand_path': couldn't find HOME environment -- expanding `~' (ArgumentError)
        from /src/lib/rdoc/ri/paths.rb:22:in `<module:Paths>'
        from /src/lib/rdoc/ri/paths.rb:6:in `<top (required)>'
        from <internal:lib/rubygems/custom_require>:29:in `require'
        from <internal:lib/rubygems/custom_require>:29:in `require'
        from /src/lib/rdoc/options.rb:3:in `<top (required)>'
        from <internal:lib/rubygems/custom_require>:29:in `require'
        from <internal:lib/rubygems/custom_require>:29:in `require'
        from /src/lib/rdoc/rdoc.rb:12:in `<top (required)>'
        from <internal:lib/rubygems/custom_require>:29:in `require'
        from <internal:lib/rubygems/custom_require>:29:in `require'
        from /src/bin/rdoc:11:in `<main>'
make: *** [rdoc] Error 1

It seems you have some code for non-HOME situation but that seems not working.
