1) What version of rubyripper are you using? On what operating system?
->0.5.7-1

Please provide any additional information below.
According to bug report here: http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/17318, 
RubyRipper is not compatible with Ruby 1.9, which is the standard on Arch L 
inux. Is this true and if yes, can it be fixed?

Cheers

I should have been more clear: the install also fails when I install from the 
0.5.7-1 
tarball directly. The problem has nothing to do with the AUR.

I cannot reproduce this with latest git at Arch Linux. But I know there where 
problems 
with ruby-gettext. So updating your system should fix the problem ;)

Ubuntu 10.04

# apt-get install rubyripper

claims success, downloads and installs dependencies, etc but there is no 
resulting executable and nothing is installed in Gnome Applications --> Sound, 
etc.

# find / -name rubyripper -type f

finds no files after installation (I of course looked in the usual path 
locations etc)

AHA!

# apt-get install rubyripper-gtk

that did the trick. It seems silly to have to manually specify that you want 
the INTERFACE to a program to install, as well.

Sheesh.

Put your complains at the package maintainer. I don't support packages that are 
made by other people.
