Hi all,

I think the gem is missing in git hub so the following didn't work:

$ sudo gem install matta-multibyte --source=http://gems.github.com

Also when I try to build the gem from source the gem spec spit out an
error. Anybody know how to install this?

Thanks.

try $ sudo gem install mattetti-multibyte --source=http://gems.github.com

I renamed my account on GitHub and forgot to update the readme.Shame on me :(

Hi Matt,

Thanks for your reply. I tried sudo gem install mattetti-multibyte --
source=http://gems.github.com and it still didn't work.
I believe github will only rebuild the gem if you update your specs.

Btw, just wondering if I git clone the source, is it possible to build
it from source? ( i'm a newbie with this )

Thanks.

sure, go source dir and find gemspec file. If it's there then:

gem build some_gem_name.gemspec

and here you go, you get your gem, then:

sudo gem install your_new_gem.gem

Cheers,
Priit

For some reasons, GitHub doesn't like me :( anyways, the gem is also
available at rubyforge.

$ sudo gem install multibyte
