libxml-ruby dependency
Reported by uipoet | August 26th, 2008 @ 05:04 AM | in 0.9.7
gem install merb-core
... and you will get while running any merb command ...
/Library/Ruby/Site/1.8/rubygems.rb:578:in report_activate_error': Could not find RubyGem libxml-ruby (>= 0) (Gem::LoadError)
from /Library/Ruby/Site/1.8/rubygems.rb:134:in `activate'
from /Library/Ruby/Site/1.8/rubygems.rb:158:in `activate'
from /Library/Ruby/Site/1.8/rubygems.rb:157:in `each'
from /Library/Ruby/Site/1.8/rubygems.rb:157:in `activate'
from /Library/Ruby/Site/1.8/rubygems.rb:49:in `gem'
from /usr/bin/merb:18
If libxml-ruby is a new dependency of merb-core, then it must be added as a dependency to the Rakefile.

It's not a good idea to have a dependency on libxml-ruby, since JRuby is not able to install/use the gem because of native extensions.

The dependency is actually just for developing Merb, but it seems like it might have snuck in as a main dependency. I'll have it fixed for 0.9.6.
