I tried to update the specs on a gem that didn't have a .specification file.
1. cd {application_home_directory}
2. rake gems:refresh_specs
When I did, I received the recursive warning:
config.gem: Unpacked gem in vendor/gems has no specification file.
Run 'rake gems:refresh_specs' to fix this.
I've also tried this, which also fails to create a specification without any error/warning:
1. cd vendor/gems/gemname
2. gem specification gemname > .specification
What could prevent the creation of a gem specification file in these cases?
