With fresh install, `juicer` command causes an error

[zachschultz]

I have just installed juicer and when I try to run juicer install yui_compressor or just juicer I get this error:

I don't maintain Juicer anymore, I suggest you look for an alternative.

I'm sorry to hear that. I'm very grateful for Juicer, as it served me well for many years.
Would you mind recommending an alternative, or a good starting point to look for alternatives?

BTW, answering the original question, the problem is that Juicer doesn't seem to play well with cmdparse 3.0.1. To fix it, this worked for me:

$ gem uninstall cmdparse
$ gem install cmdparse --version 2.0.6

@LucianoP Thanks for the fix/workaround. :) Also, if anyone has found any alternatives to Juicer, please post here. I primarily use it to merge and minify css files only.

Yeah! indeed it solved the issue! Thanks a lot for the input.

@cjohansen maybe you write that in the readme? Would be nice. Thx.

@LucianoP Thank you so much for posting your workaround.
