Puppet users - May 2007 - Issue with ralsh and Puppet installed as gem

Hi,

I finally found why ralsh was failing on my systems; Puppet was
installed as a gem and ralsh couldn''t find it. I added the preamble
from
puppetd and it seems to work fine now:

---8<--- snip ---8<---
65c65,75
< require ''puppet''
---

>   if Gem::Version.correct?(ARGV[0][1..-2])
>     version = ARGV[0][1..-2]
>     ARGV.shift
>   end
> end
> require_gem ''puppet'', version
> # require ''puppet''
---8<--- snip ---8<---

hth,

Rubygems automatically adds that preamble, I think.  It''s not in  
puppetd in svn, anyway.

I''d be glad to accept patches to the gems that add ralsh and  
puppetrun to the distribution.
