ri has empty documentations – Ubuntu 11.10, Ruby 1.9


I'm running Ubuntu 11.10 and installed Ruby 1.9 like this:

$ sudo apt-get install ruby1.9 rubygems

Everything is working very well but ri seems to have empty documentations. ri told me that the documentations were empty and I had to install them. I executed this because I read it would help:

$ rdoc --all --ri

Now, when I try to open any documentations:

$ ri Array
Nothing known about Array

I get the same for everything else I search.


Solution

  • what about this ?

    apt-get install ri1.8
    

    EDIT

    or try this: (non rvm)

    gem install rdoc rdoc-data
    rdoc-data --install
