[rspec-users] [Cucumber] Running single feature from command line

[Mark Lynn]

When I use Aslak's version of Treetop as Joseph suggested, this does  
get rid of the polyglot error. However, I still get the following when  
running from the command line:

$ cucumber -r features/steps -r features/support/env.rb features/plain/ 
user_home_page.feature
/Library/Ruby/Site/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in  
`gem_original_require': no such file to load -- features/steps  
(LoadError)
Failed to load features/support/env.rb	from /Library/Ruby/Site/1.8/ 
rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in `require'

	from /usr/bin/cucumber:19:in `load'
	from /usr/bin/cucumber:19

Any idea why rspec code is being called here? I did discover that if I  
uninstall cucumber 0.2.3 and try version 0.1.16, then the above  
command line works as does using the profile. I'm not sure if this  
indicates a bug in 0.2.3.
