Wrong installation documentation

Reported by: user Assigned to: nahi
Priority: normal Milestone: 2.1.1
Component: core Version: 1.0
Keywords: Cc: john@digitalpulp.com

Description

The name of the project is now httpclient, and it is available directly via gem. The installation documentation should reflect this.

  • status changed from closed to reopened.
  • resolution deleted.

Why do you recommend installing from source, instead of just 

sudo gem install httpclient -y

Just curious.

Thanks for the update. With "The installation documentation" you mean README.txt, right? README.txt is included in *.tar.gz or *.zip so it assumes users use install.rb.

No, I meant the documentation on the wiki, in two places on the front page, it suggests 

gem install httpclient --source http://dev.ctor.org/download

Maybe this is preferred, I am just curious.

Thanks for the quick responses!

Oh I've understood now. Thanks.

'--source' is for pointing my custom gem repository ('remote source' in RubyGems?' term) at http://dev.ctor.org/download/. I post gem which is a GA, RC, or snapshot release here. It's the original repository of gems made by me so I recommend users to use it.
