15. Did a "gem unpack dm-types" and it worked.
16. Did a $ find . -exec grep -il crypt {} \;

18. The dependencey was removed from github on March 23, 2009: http://github.com/datamapper/dm-more/commit/d37f392ce69e5bfbc71b0aa8abade5dd22c00c63
19. Trying to debug "dm-types" (merb) install problem so I repeated Dan's steps: $ gem fetch merb (p.17)
    Downloaded merb-1.0.10
20. Then unpacked it $ gem unpack merb-1.0.10.gem
    Unpacked gem: 'c:/Documents and Settings/jasnow/gitlocalrepo/merb-1.0.10'
21. Then created gemspec file: $ gem spec merb -v '1.0.10' -r > merb-1.0.10.gemspec and it had 173 lines in it.
22. Then edited the previous step's gemspec file. Changed "0.9.10" to "0.9.9". !ruby/object:Gem::Dependency
    name: dm-types
    type: :runtime
    version_requirement:
    version_requirements: !ruby/object:Gem::Requirement
    requirements:
    - - ~>
    - !ruby/object:Gem::Version
    version: 0.9.9
    version:
23. Then built gemspec file. $ gem build -V merb-1.0.10.gemspec
    WARNING: RDoc will not be generated (has_rdoc == false)
    Successfully built RubyGem
    Name: merb
    Version: 1.0.10
    File: merb-1.0.10.gem
24. Still a problem.
    
25. Did this: git clone git://github.com/datamapper/dm-more.git
26. Ran "rake gem" and it worked and put gem into pkg directory.
27. Tried this: $ gem install dm-more-0.9.11.gem
    ERROR: Error installing dm-more-0.9.11.gem:
    dm-more requires dm-core (= 0.9.11, runtime)
28. So I got dm-core: git clone git://github.com/datamapper/dm-core.git
29. Repeated step 26 and 27, but it need data-objects. Getting old...
    
30. So I got data-objects: git clone git://github.com/sam/do.git(OUT OF DATE)

31. So I did this one: git clone git://github.com/datamapper/data_mapper.git
32. Repeated step 26 and 27. Got same message as step 27 about dm-core.
33. Started using Dan's instructions. Repeated step 19. It worked. $ gem fetch merb
    Downloaded merb-1.0.10
34. Repeated step 20: $ gem unpack merb-1.0.10.gem
    Unpacked gem: 'c:/Documents and Settings/jasnow/gitlocalrepo/merb-1.0.10'
35. Repeated step 21: $ gem spec merb -v '1.0.10' -r > merb-1.0.10.gemspec
36. Repeated step 22: Change 1 (s/0.9.10/0.9.9/) line in new merb-1.0.10.gemspec file.
37. Repeated step 23: $ gem build -V merb-1.0.10.gemspec
    WARNING: RDoc will not be generated (has_rdoc == false)
    Successfully built RubyGem
    Name: merb
