Gem.path is undefined when rack1.9.1 gems:unpack
Reported by dp | January 20th, 2010 @ 04:15 PM | in 2.3.10
config/environment.rb:
config.gem "thoughtbot-clearance",
:lib => 'clearance',
:source => 'http://gems.github.com',
:version => '0.8.2'
$> rake1.9.1 gems:install
works fine - it installs clearance into ~/.gem , but
$> rake1.9.1 gems:unpack
fails with error:
$ rake1.9.1 gems:unpack
(in /home/dp/rails/web )
ERROR: While executing gem ... (NoMethodError)
undefined method `path' for Gem:Module
$
ruby-debug says, that Gem.path became undefined on line
activesupport-2.3.5/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:437
435 # return constants from from_mod's parents.
436 begin
437 return parent.const_missing(const_name)
438 rescue NameError => e
Some lines before, at line 423 Gem.path is correct (
["/home/dp/.gem/ruby/1.9.1", "/var/lib/gems/1.9.1"] )
but search_for_file returns nil
423 file_path = search_for_file(path_suffix)
But if I do unpack by gem command - everything OK:
$ ls -dl thoughtbot-clearance-0.8.2
ls: cannot access thoughtbot-clearance-0.8.2: No such file or directory
$ gem unpack thoughtbot-clearance
Unpacked gem: '/home/dp/thoughtbot-clearance-0.8.2'
$ ls -dl thoughtbot-clearance-0.8.2
drwxr-xr-x 8 dp dp 4096 2010-01-20 17:02 thoughtbot-clearance-0.8.2

I ran into the same problem. Attached is the patch I used to work around it (invoking gem command directly, like you did).
Then I ran into the same problem with rake rails:freeze:gems. Here was my workaround for that:
