[DRE-maint] Bug#630738: gem2deb: failed to build a .deb with error on files in the tag directory

[Gilles Meier]

Package: gem2deb
Version: 0.2.3
Severity: important

gem2deb failed to build jekyll and liquid.

When I try to build either of these package, I get an error about a
missing file in the tag directory.

For jekyll :

install: cannot create regular file `/home/deploy/gems/jekyll/ruby-jekyll-0.10.0/debian/ruby-jekyll/usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/jekyll/tags/include.rb': No such file or directory
