Description Timothy Kilbourn 2007-01-20 01:54:48 UTC

My system has the install binary installed in /usr/bin, but the rbconfig.rb file in /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/$ARCH gives CONFIG["INSTALL"] = '/bin/install -c'. This causes mkmf to use the wrong location when it generates Makefiles (i.e., for gems). I noticed this when installing hpricot via a gem.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. gem install hpricot
