The above happens whenever you attempt to run script manager in amarok on freespire-1.0.13
Amarok requires ruby version 1.8 or higher, yet it is not installed when you install amarok via
sudo apt-get install amarok
The fix is 2 steps:
first, sudo apt-get install ruby1.8
This will install ruby1.8_1.8.1+1.8.2pre3-2_i386.deb and another dependancy libruby1.8_1.8.1+1.8.2pre3-2_i386.deb
Step 2:
make sure the symbolic link /usr/bin/ruby points to /usr/bin/ruby1.8, i.e.:
ls /usr/bin/ruby
if it says no such file or directory, then created the link:
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/ruby1.8 /usr/bin/ruby
The above fixes the first error, yet there are more yet.
Another error after fixing the above is:
Code:
/usr/share/apps/amarok/scripts/lyrics_lyrc/lyrics_lyrc.rb:14:in `require': No such file to load -- rexml/document (LoadError) from /usr/share/apps/amarok/scripts/lyrics_lyrc/lyrics_lyrc.rb:14
To fix it, you will also need to install librexml-ruby1.8:
