Hi Jon,

I ran into a little problem on step 2. Since pcaprub never actually 
installs I cannot unpack it. I tried to "gem fetch" followed by a gem 
unpack. This worked except that the output dir was empty.

So instead I did a gem install pcaprub --install-dir 
"C:\users\user\downloads\" and it placed it into the pcaprub-0.11.2 
folder.

I then proceeded to make the changes you suggested.

When running the gem build command I got a new error.

C:\Users\user\Downloads\pcaprub-0.11.2>gem install pcaprub-0.11.3.a1.gem

The error being

Any thoughts? Thanks so much for your help!
