I’m trying to install ruby on QNX 6.2. I get as far as 'make install’
and then there seems to be a problem with using sysread on a buffered
stream.
It’s easy to reproduce the problem just calling FileUtils#copy_file:
···
===================================
cat a
1
2
3
cat b
./ruby -e ‘require “./lib/fileutils”; FileUtils.copy_file “a”, “b”’
./lib/fileutils.rb:409:in sysread': sysread for buffered IO (IOError) from ./lib/fileutils.rb:409:incopy_stream’
from ./lib/fileutils.rb:397:in copy_file' from ./lib/fileutils.rb:396:inopen’
from ./lib/fileutils.rb:396:in copy_file' from ./lib/fileutils.rb:395:inopen’
from ./lib/fileutils.rb:395:in `copy_file’
from -e:1
I had the same problem when building 1.7.3, except of course that was
using ftools.rb and File.syscopy.
The prebuilt binary (1.6.7) from the QNX repository does not have this
problem.
