Does the file in question also require 'rubygems'?= If not, you could either add that line before the rspec one, or call the s= cript with -rrubygems.

The latter was the one cons= idered a best practice, I recall.

I am new to Ruby but not to Software Enginee= ring.

I am trying to make some existing code work
on the Raring Ringtail version of Ubuntu.

The original code was written with Ruby 1.8
so I have removed Ruby 1.9.1 and installed 1.8.7
which solved some initial problems.

require 'rspec'
causes the error.
in `require': no such file to load -- rspec (LoadError)
I have tried
sudo apt-get install ruby-rspec-core
and it makes no difference to the output.

Why can't Ruby find rspec?
Do I have to apt-get an older version of rspec-core?
If so, how do I find out which one?
Or do I need to add something else to $RUBYLIB
Or something else?

Thanks for your help.
