I have ruby 1.8.7 (2008-08-11 patchlevel 72) [universal-darwin10.0]
installed in my Snow Leopard Preview Release. Rails runs OK, but I can't
install some gems with native extensions. The following error appear:
$ sudo gem install bluecloth

I decided to install another version of ruby at /usr/local/ruby-1.8.6
and point executables (erb, gem, ruby, etc.) to the new ruby dir. All
went right, and ruby (1.8.6) and gem are working. But when I try to
install any gem, I get:

I just had to do the same thing for a new MacBook Pro purchased
just a couple weeks ago. Good news is, this still works. Bad news is,
it's takes 9GB if you go whole hog and install xcode+iOS tools.
I had this particular problem as well and here's how I got around it:
For OS 10.7 + XCode4.3 only open Xcode preferences, select the
"Downloads" button, select the "Components" tab of Downloads, highlight
"Command Line Tools" and press the install button. Gem install rails
didn't give me any trouble after that. Hope that works for you too,

You also have the dev tools installed?
Thank you for the response. Yes, I had... but since I didn't find a
solution, I reinstalled Leopard. It is better wait for the final release
of Snow Leopard

Well, you can install other Ruby. I followed this tutorial and it worked
great:
If this file really doesn't exist you should submit a bug report to Apple.
