Hi Eric,

I'm running my Ruby compilation as a cron job and fails on "make rdoc", saying following:

/src/lib/rdoc/ri/paths.rb:22:in expand_path': couldn't find HOME environment -- expanding ~' (ArgumentError)
from /src/lib/rdoc/ri/paths.rb:22:in <module:Paths>' from /src/lib/rdoc/ri/paths.rb:6:in <top (required)>'
from internal:lib/rubygems/custom_require:29:in require' from <internal:lib/rubygems/custom_require>:29:in require'
from /src/lib/rdoc/options.rb:3:in <top (required)>' from <internal:lib/rubygems/custom_require>:29:in require'
from internal:lib/rubygems/custom_require:29:in require' from /src/lib/rdoc/rdoc.rb:12:in <top (required)>'
from internal:lib/rubygems/custom_require:29:in require' from <internal:lib/rubygems/custom_require>:29:in require'
from /src/bin/rdoc:11:in `'
make: *** [rdoc] Error 1

It seems you have some code for non-HOME situation but that seems not working.
