Solution :
After reading this article on the similar issue, I’ve decided to try out this issue comment as it seems the most reasonable.
Which is replacing the entire CFPropertyList-2.2.0 folder with the contents of CFPropertyList-2.1.2
1) Enter the containing folder of CFPropertyList-2.2.0
cd /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p385@SiriProxy/gems/
2) Copy CFPropertyList-2.2.0 folder out in case we screw things up a little
cp CFPropertyList-2.2.0 ~
3) Download the zip file (in Pi’s terminal) :
curl -O -L http://rubyforge.org/frs/download.php/76604/CFPropertyList-2.1.2.zip
4) Unzip the zip file and delete the zip
unzip CFPropertyList-2.1.2.zip
rm CFPropertyList-2.1.2.zip
After this, you should see a folder called CFPropertyList-2.1.2 if you do the ls command.
5) Delete the original CFPropertyList-2.2.0 folder
rm -rf CFPropertyList-2.2.0
6) Rename the new CFPropertyList-2.1.2 folder to CFPropertyList-2.2.0
mv CFPropertyList-2.1.2 CFPropertyList-2.2.0
