Can't "Rake Install"

[Deanmv]

When running rake install I get:

unknown-b8-8d-12-24-42-74:SiriProxy deanvizer$ rake install --trace * Invoke install (first_time) * Execute install siriproxy 0.3.2 built to pkg/siriproxy-0.3.2.gem rake aborted!

' Tasks: TOP => install unknown-b8-8d-12-24-42-74:SiriProxy deanvizer$

So then doing:

nknown-b8-8d-12-24-42-74:SiriProxy deanvizer$ gem install /Users/deanvizer/SiriProxy/pkg/siriproxy-0.3.2.gem Fetching: CFPropertyList-2.2.0.gem (100%) ERROR: While executing gem ...

Then with Sudo I get:

nknown-b8-8d-12-24-42-74:SiriProxy deanvizer$ sudo gem install /Users/deanvizer/SiriProxy/pkg/siriproxy-0.3.2.gem Password: Successfully installed siriproxy-0.3.2 1 gem installed Installing ri documentation for siriproxy-0.3.2... file 'lib' not found Installing RDoc documentation for siriproxy-0.3.2... file 'lib' not found

Anyone found anything like this?

I saw that, one of the previous steps got things in the ~/.rvm directory owned as root, I just did a "sudo chown -R whoami ~/.rvm" to take ownership back.
