Created attachment 436258 [details, diff] Remove all mentions of rdoc in Rakefile, making hpricot install without rdoc. hpricot fails to build when rdoc is not installed. Build log contains an rake error: LoadError: cannot load such file -- rdoc/task installing rdoc fixes the problem. This problem is independent of the setting of the doc use-flag.
Can you confirm that you had this issue with a fresh install (of ruby-related code, at least).

I wanted to find out if you ran into the original error when you were trying to install hpricot on a system that did not have ruby installed yet. There are some dependency issues where rdoc is not installed early enough and I want to confirm that this is what happened.
Actually, it was on a system with ruby 2.2 and 2.3 installed [USE=-rdoc] for the update of hpricot from 0.8.6-r3 to 0.8.6-r4. Therefore, rdoc was not installed. As I am not using ruby directly, I was never interested in having a documentation system and the corresponding documentation installed.
This may be bug 536288. In that case re-installing dev-ruby/rdoc should fix it.

I wilfully omitted rdoc from my install: The rdoc use-flag is unset to not have rdoc installed because I do not need any documentation for ruby related packages. In this environment the hpricot [USE=-doc] build fails, because it needs rdoc, although the use-flag suggests that no docs will be built. IMHO, this is one of two problems: 1. rdoc is always needed for hpricot but there is no DEPEND defined. The solution would be a corresponding DEPEND in the hpricot ebuild. 2. hpricot requires rdoc although it should not be needed for USE=-doc. In this case, my patch could be a possible solution to disable doc generation at build time for systems with USE=-rdoc. By the way, why do ruby packages use the rdoc (dev-lang/ruby) and doc (for dev-ruby pkgs) use flags? All the best, Jan
