I just cheated and ran the gem install with --no-rdoc option and it all
worked fine: would be good to know what the problem is or how to avoid it
(other than omitting all docs).

Subject: RE: [Myexperiment-discuss] Detailed Installation Instructions
for myExperiment
Hi again, David. This time I am starting with a clean setup of Ubuntu
8.04 and following your instructions. As I mentioned in the previous
email, your command to install Rails 1.2.6 worked fine. Even the rmagick
installation worked. It barfed though on the mega gem installation line -
got through several but hit a problem with not being able to install
documentation for some reason - log below. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Tony.

Directory /var/lib/gems/1.8/doc/hoe-1.6.0/ri already exists, but it looks
like it isn't an RDoc directory. Because RDoc doesn't want to risk
destroying any of your existing files, you'll need to
specify a different output directory name (using the
--op <dir> option).
