Just when i think i''ve got my head around including gems with
gem.config
in my environment.rb file i hit another hurdle.  The latest one involves
redlcoth, which one of my plugins needs.
my installed redcloth gem is in this folder:
  /var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/RedCloth-4.2.2/
and its main lib folder is called ''redcloth''.
I managed to freeze it into my app by calling config.gem as follows:
  config.gem "RedCloth", :version => ''4.2.2'',
:lib => "redcloth"
Initially i had the first argument as "redcloth" but this
didn''t work -
presumably it needs the name of the gem folder (minus version number)
and is case sensitive?
Anyway, because i''d managed to freeze it into my vendor/gems folder, i
thought everything was cool.  But when i try and run a rake task i get
this error:
  The following gems have native components that need to be built
    RedCloth  = 4.2.2
  You''re running:
    ruby 1.8.6.111 at /usr/bin/ruby1.8
    rubygems 1.3.5 at ,
/home/max/work/akrotoski_container/akrotoski/thoth,
/home/max/.gem/ruby/1.8, /var/lib/gems/1.8
  Run `rake gems:build` to build the unbuilt gems.
If i run rake gems:build, i get the same error back, which is the usual
frustrating problem i''ve had in the past with this stuff.
Can anyone see what i''m doing wrong?  thanks, max
