Ruby's rake sucks frankly: Commands necessary to build the latest Appcelerator Entourage stuff on Ubuntu Intrepid

Appcelerator is a web development framework for rich Internet apps. I needed to debug some things. Unfortunately it uses Rake which is really unpleasant to debug the dependencies in.

  1. git clone git@github.com:jhaynie/appcelerator_sdk.git
  2. sudo apt-get install ruby
  3. sudo apt-get install rake
  4. sudo apt-get install rubygems
  5. sudo gem install rubyzip
  6. sudo apt-get install ruby-dev
  7. sudo gem install json
  8. sudo gem install aws-s3
  9. sudo gem install archive-tar-minitar
  10. sudo apt-get install libxml2
  11. sudo apt-get install libxml2-dev
  12. sudo apt-get install libxslt-dev
  13. sudo gem install nokogiri
  14. sudo gem install hoe
  15. sudo gem install rcov
  16. sudo apt-get install libopenssl-ruby
  17. sudo gem install ruby-yui
  18. sudo update-java-alternatives -s java-6-sun
  19. rake
