Failed to install gem - Githubissues

Marco-Sulla commented 5 years ago

This is what I've done:

$ sudo snap install ruby --classic
$ sudo gem install htmlbeautifier

Result:

ERROR:  While executing gem ... (ArgumentError)
    "\x00\x00\x00\x000\x02" is not an octal string

I uninstalled the snap and installed ruby with apt and I had no problem to install htmlbeautifier

@znz Thanks for your confirmation.

@Marco-Sulla Can you file the details of your environment and version of htmlbeautifier?

The bug is disappeared, probably it was a bug of the gem. Anyway, I need it for Atom, and now I use Sublime :D

ruby / snap.ruby
