no such file to load — hmac-sha1
July 3rd, 2009 by RadarWhen you encounter the above error, it means you’re missing the ruby-openid ruby-hmac gem. I couldn’t find anything on google that clearly stated this, so I’m posting it here as a reminder for myself and others.
Thanks to the comments for clarifying the gem needed.

Thank God you did.
Now I’m going to chase down the next error in the Gitorious install – it’s like dependency hell all over again.
