Gem unpack problem

[Alex Young]

Does anybody have any idea why this happens?

$ gem unpack hoe-1.1.7.gem
ERROR: While executing gem ... (ArgumentError)
install directory "hoe-1.1.7" not absolute
$ gem unpack hoe
ERROR: While executing gem ... (ArgumentError)
install directory "hoe-1.1.7" not absolute
$ gem -v
0.9.1

This is on a relatively fresh Ubuntu install.

Probably a bug. There's a suggested fix in the ticket comments.

That looks like it. Thanks.
