RUBY-1181 You use alternative SDK without installed RSpec Gem on Ubuntu Ruby installed throught apt

Issue is visible to: All Users

Ubuntu's ruby is installed in
/usr/lib/ruby

and gems is installed
/var/lib/gems

The ruby plugin does not seem to recognize where the rspec gem is located. I was able to us the custom location, but this is an issue.

Environment: Ubuntu 7.10, idea 7.0.1

And where is "spec" script located?

Plugin expects that "spec" script is located in "bin" folder of your Ruby SDK. Thus if "ruby" is installed in
/usr/bin/ plugin will look for "spec" script in /usr/bin/

Ubuntu puts spec in:
/var/lib/gems/1.8/bin/spec

Maybe this is an Ubuntu specific gotcha. Good thing there is the custom spec location :)

1. We've just installed spec on Ubuntu 7.10 with default configurations. And gem manager install "spec" script in /usr/bin.
How did you install your gems? Did you use default configuration?

2. Where 'gem' script is located? In /usr/bin ?
3. Please run command 'gem environment"

The same problem in Ubuntu 8.04.

$ whereis gem
gem: /usr/bin/gem /usr/share/man/man1/gem.1.gz

$ gem environment

Dmitry,
Where are located "spec" and "rails" exectable scripts? In "/var/lib/gems/1.8/bin/" ?

Also please tell me the value of "Gems bin directory" field in ruby sdk settings ([Settings]->[Project Settings]->[JDKs]-> your ruby sdk)
