Gemspec development dependencies seems to be messed up

Testing RSpec
1

$ sudo gem install rspec-rails --development
Password:
ERROR: Error installing rspec-rails:
rspec requires cucumber (>= 0.3, development)

…and when installed cucumber manually, it ends up with weird stuff.
Is this RSpec issue or a RubyGems issue?

Can you be more specific?

I have no idea yet. I was able to run “sudo gem install rspec-rails
–development” with no trouble.

OK, I noticed this only happen on Ruby 1.9 and jruby. Seems to be
native compilation errors, but I don’t get why all these should be
installed:

Are all these really development dependencies?

Of rspec, no, but they are dependencies of rspec’s dependencies, and
their
dependencies, and so on, and so on, and so on …

OK, thanks - I’ve misunderstood that gem command it seems.
