no implicit conversion from nil to integer

[Dakuan]

Code is railing on a file open :( I've placed a puts statement just before the offending line to find out what file is not happy about and its '/tmp/hydra_heuristics.yml' which sure enough doesn't exist. Is there some kind of generator that needs to be run or something like that?

Full stack trace:

** Invoke hydra:cucumber (first_time)

Tasks: TOP => hydra:cucumber

Weirdly, this issue only occurs on the 2nd occasion that the tests are run. If I reboot the machine, they will run - once.

That is odd.

Although Hydra has not seen much work in a few years, I am not sure how compatible it is with ruby 1.9.3. This seems to be a yaml parsing issue, but hydra is also the one writing the yaml file, so I'm not sure why it would create a file it can't read.
