Please forget about the condition "installed".

This issue is about the condition "compiled". About the behaviour of the ruby-interpreter within the source-tree, right after the compilation.

* Rubygems should not *block* the freshly compiled interpreter from working within the source tree.

I'm not asking to include a workaround, but to resolve this issue in some production-quality manner.

Specification should be:

* Status compiled : interpreter works as-is within the source-tree
* Status installed: interpreter depends on directories specified during the installation

Author: Lazaridis Ilias
Status: Rejected
Priority: Normal
Assignee: Usaku NAKAMURA
Category: core
Target version: 
ruby -v: ruby 1.9.3dev (2011-06-28 trunk 32265) [i386-mswin32_90]


=begin

From within the directory of a fresh trunk checkout:

$ win32\configure
$ nmake
$ miniruby -e"p 'hello'" #=> hello
$ ruby -e"p 'hello'"

 <internal:gem_prelude>:1:in `require': cannot load such file -- rubygems.rb (LoadError)
        from <internal:gem_prelude>:1:in `<compiled>'

(the exact same procedure using branch 1.9.2 worked fine)
=end
