Subject: FWD: Bug in Yaml.rb WAS: [Re: Bug In Ruby 1.8.0 Stops Slider]

Hello,

Below is a transcript of an email between myself and the developer for 
slider.  Seems when you try to load the "yaml.rb" library, and you have 
not installed at least the "Syck" package, loading yaml.rb fails because 
it doesn't look like the internal yaml package for ruby is there.

Being a Ruby Nuby, I'm not sure what else to do with this, so I'm 
following Chris's advice and forwarding this here.

Thanks!

Jason

Addendum: I've installed the Syck-0.41 package, and the Ruby extension 
for it, and now loading yaml.rb works fine.  I don't recall reading 
anywhere that I needed to install some sort of yaml parser, but that 
doesn't mean it isn't in the documentation. :-)

First, thanks for writing a bugreport.
It's the first one for slider. :)

yaml.rb seems to load syck, the yaml parser written in C, first.
It looks like you didn't install it, so yaml tries the ruby-only parser
which seems to be missing too.

Therefore this is a bug in yaml.rb, not in slider.

Could you please forward this bugreport to
  ruby-talk@ruby-lang.org

Thank you,
+chris+
