Problem installing 1.6.8 on OS X 10.2

Mark,

I followed the whole list, I think, upgrading the developer tools,
removing
the files, downloading a fresh copy of ruby, and I seem to be getting
the
same result. Am I correct that in the statement CFLAGS=‘-g -o2
-fno-common’
./configure, that the -o2 is l.c. o (not zero)? Here are the results. I
am
wondering if I should also toss the old /Developer prior to updating
with
the December 2002 version.

I’ve never seen that before. I think you have to start over from the
beginning on this one.

I would recommend the following (not all of these are likely to be
necessary, but they help control the environment):

  1. make sure you have the most recent Apple Developer Tools (I think
    the last update was December 2002).

  2. delete /usr/local/lib/ruby and usr/local/bin/ruby.

  3. delete the extracted ruby folder.

  4. use the bash shell (type bash at your terminal prompt).

  5. run the following on the ruby tarball:

gtar -zxf ruby-1.6.8.tar.gz

Don’t use stuff-it.

  1. next do the following:

cd ruby-1.6.8/
CFLAGS=‘-g -O2 -fno-common’ ./configure
make
make test
sudo make install
sudo ranlib /usr/local/lib/libruby-static.a

Some of the above advice comes from this page:
