KNOWN ISSUES

  • Typhoeus segmentation fault

    Update cURL to version => 7.21 (may have to install from source)

  • Proxy not working

    Update cURL to version => 7.21.7 (may have to install from source).

    Installation from sources :

    Grab the sources from http://curl.haxx.se/download.html
    Decompress the archive
    Open the folder with the extracted files
    Run ./configure
    Run make
    Run sudo make install
    Run sudo ldconfig
    
  • cannot load such file -- readline:

    sudo aptitude install libreadline5-dev libncurses5-dev
    

    Then, open the directory of the readline gem (you have to locate it)

    cd ~/.rvm/src/ruby-XXXX/ext/readline
    ruby extconf.rb
    make
    make install
    

    See http://vvv.tobiassjosten.net/ruby-on-rails/fixing-readline-for-the-ruby-on-rails-console/ for more details

  • no such file to load -- rubygems

    update-alternatives --config ruby

    And select your ruby version

    See wpscanteam#148
