Hello,

On ruby 2.2.0, there is some files shipped with ruby that generates errors when required. This is due to the removal of minitest/testunit from ruby library. I.e.:

# ruby -rrdoc/test_case 
/usr/lib/ruby/2.2/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:54:in `require': cannot load such file -- minitest/autorun (LoadError)
        from /usr/lib/ruby/2.2/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:54:in `require'
        from /usr/lib/ruby/2.2/rdoc/test_case.rb:9:in `<top (required)>'
        from /usr/lib/ruby/2.2/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:54:in `require'
        from /usr/lib/ruby/2.2/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:54:in `require'

They are:

(minitest)
/usr/lib/ruby/2.2/rubygems/test_case.rb
/usr/lib/ruby/2.2/rubygems/package/tar_test_case.rb
/usr/lib/ruby/2.2/rubygems/installer_test_case.rb
/usr/lib/ruby/2.2/rdoc/test_case.rb
/usr/lib/ruby/2.2/rdoc/markup/formatter_test_case.rb
/usr/lib/ruby/2.2/rdoc/markup/text_formatter_test_case.rb

(test/unit)
/usr/lib/ruby/2.2/rake/runtest.rb

They might be useful for a "make test" but they are probably useless for the target system and might be OK to remove them from installation. Maybe it is interesting to remove them from {rdoc,rake}.gemspec too.

Even minitest/testunit removed from /usr/lib/ruby/2.2/, it is still present in /usr/lib/ruby/2.2/rubygems, which ruby looks for automatically.

My problem was that I got all gems uninstalled. Sorry.

If tests should be installed, please, close this as invalid.
