I tried to run this with the debuger:
ruby -r debug extconf.rb --with-pgsql-include-dir=/usr/include/pgsql --
with-pgsql-lib-dir=/usr/lib/pgsql
this block of code in /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/mkmf.rb is where the error
happens
topdir = File.dirname(libdir = File.dirname(__FILE__))
extdir = File.expand_path("ext", topdir)
$extmk = File.expand_path($0)[0, extdir.size+1] == extdir+"/"
if not $extmk and File.exist?(Config::CONFIG["archdir"] +
"/ruby.h")
$hdrdir = $topdir = Config::CONFIG["archdir"]
elsif File.exist?(($top_srcdir ||= topdir) + "/ruby.h") and
File.exist?(($topdir ||= Config::CONFIG["topdir"]) +
"/config.h")
$hdrdir = $top_srcdir
else
abort "can''t find header files for ruby."
end
it''s looking for ruby.h in either:
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/i386-linux
/usr/lib/ruby/
and config.h in
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/i386-linux
but those files are not there ..

it be peculiar to blocks in ruby. I feel like I want to edit the ruby

what is

I had put debug prints in the code and the reopen of stdout messed that up. In reality it tries the gcc command below. I did not have gcc installed, I then installed that.

ok, it seems to have worked. Thanks alot for your help .. I tried to be carefull, but I realize that the way ruby functions return default values that debug code in the wrong place can mess up the return result. I often write code to return an explicit result. After not making any sense of why it was erroring our, I restored the non debug version of the mkmf.rb -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
