Permission issue while using the gem installation #1

Closed st3rk closed 8 years ago

After installing postrunner using ruby-gem, I was unable to launch the program as a standard user. The progam crashed with the following output:

~ ❯❯❯ postrunner import /media/sdd/GARMIN/ACTIVITY
/usr/lib/ruby/2.1.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:135:in `require': cannot load such file -- postrunner (LoadError)
    from /usr/lib/ruby/2.1.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:135:in `rescue in require'
    from /usr/lib/ruby/2.1.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:144:in `require'
    from /var/lib/gems/2.1.0/gems/postrunner-0.0.9/bin/postrunner:4:in `<top (required)>'
    from /usr/local/bin/postrunner:23:in `load'
    from /usr/local/bin/postrunner:23:in `<main>'

Using strace, we can see it's a permission issue:

11:43:44.762611 open("/var/lib/gems/2.1.0/gems/postrunner-0.0.9/lib/postrunner.rb", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied) <0.000040>

Actually, only root can read the file:

~ ❯❯❯ ls -l /var/lib/gems/2.1.0/gems/postrunner-0.0.9/lib/postrunner.rb
-rw-r----- 1 root root 561 Oct 10 11:37 /var/lib/gems/2.1.0/gems/postrunner-0.0.9/lib/postrunner.rb

The permission issue also exists for fit4ruby. After changing the read rights, everything goes smoothly:

root@yoshi:/home/brice# chmod -R a+r /var/lib/gems/2.1.0/gems/fit4ruby-0.0.6 /var/lib/gems/2.1.0/gems/postrunner-0.0.9/
root@yoshi:/home/brice# exit

This issue should now be fixed with version 0.2.1.
