I am running Fedora core 14 and trying to install bluecloth and am
having problems.
The first problem was with strcasecmp and I solved that my recompiling
ruby to the latest 1.8.7 version, patch 334.

Now when I try to install bluecloth I get the error:
gem install bluecloth
Building native extensions. This could take a while...
..................

Successfully installed bluecloth-2.0.11
1 gem installed
Installing ri documentation for bluecloth-2.0.11...

unrecognized option `--protected'

If I turn on debugging I get:
.. . .
Installing ri documentation for bluecloth-2.0.11...
Exception `GetoptLong::InvalidOption' at /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/
getoptlong.rb:403 - unrecognized option `--protected'

Any suggestions?

If you just want to use the gem then you can ignore that error and read
documentation online: http://rubydoc.info/gems/bluecloth/2.0.11/frames

Not sure about the error.

This happens because the gem has an invalid RDoc option in its =
rdoc_options. I'll have this fixed in the next release.
