[fxruby-users] Does anyone have access to an x86-64 box?

I’m running PLD, and have installed ruby-1.8.2-2.20040906.4. I looked
for a ruby-libs package (in poldek; using primarially
ftp://ftp.amd64.ac.pld-linux.org/dists/ac/PLD/amd64/PLD/RPMS/ ), and
failed to find one. I thought the package ruby-static might have
them, but apparently not.

What am I missing here, to get the ruby headers?

I’ve never tried to use fxruby, I suspect the problem is something
really obvious that the installer isn’t giving a clear error message
about.

[root@datastor rubygems-0.8.6]# gem install fxruby

Building native extensions. This could take a while…
can’t find header files for ruby.

Well, I should have looked at that more closely: “can’t find header
files for ruby”. So yes, something appears to be broken in your Ruby
installation before we even get around to FXRuby…
