install source for merb 1.1 edge?

[Jon Hancock]

about 4 months ago, I installed merb as follows:
sudo gem install merb --source http://edge.merbivore.com --source
http://gems.rubyforge.org

It was my understanding this was the latest merb 1.1 code.
I have no idea what the current repository is now. How are others
installing merb edge (I'm using ruby 1.9.1)?

Any pointers? thanks, Jon

thanks for the link.
I've installed merb from github.com/merb/merb and am pretty sure I
have all other dependents accounted for, but doing a simple "merb-gen
app merb_test" fails.

Here's a stack trace:

Can someone point me to up to date bundler usage? There are several
old posts on using it and the latest page at
http://wiki.github.com/merb/merb/howto-using-the-bundler is half-baked
and doesn't have instructions for creating a new project. What I
usually do when migrating to a more recent merb for a current project
is generate a new app with merb-gen and study what files changed from
what I have in my working project. Now that merb-gen is busted, I
can't even do that.

thanks, Jon

I think another page of merb wiki will helpful:

thanks, I've read that page and referenced it in my last reply. Any
ideas why merb-gen isn't working?
thanks, Jon

oops, I misunderstand.

I met this issue also. And I found a temporary and ugly solution.
First touch a file named Gemfile, and run: "merb-gen app ." command. I
think it's a issue after pk's bundle integration upgrade. You may as
well report this problem in lighthouseapp.

I found following codes in merb-gen's initialize method.

Merb::BootLoader::Logger.run
Merb::BootLoader::BuildFramework.run
Merb::BootLoader::Dependencies.run

I can't understand the last line above. I comment this line and
merb-gen works well. Maybe only michaelklishin the author of merb-gen
know this. Is there anyone know that?

Hi Jon,

I try to fix this issue in my fork:

http://github.com/kaichen/merb/tree/fix_merb-gen

You can clone it and run 'rake install' in merb/merb-core directory to
install the patched merb-core gem.
