MDVA-2009:117 : ruby-RubyGems

high Nessus Plugin ID 47933

Synopsis

The remote Mandriva host is missing one or more security-related patches.

Description

On x86_64, rubygems assumes that the gem installation path is in /usr/lib64/ruby. This is problematic because all of the Mandriva ruby-* packages install their rb files under /usr/lib/ruby regardless of the machine architecture; rubygems consequently cannot find any of the installed gems. This update fixes this issue.

Solution

Update the affected package(s).
