I''ve been trying to install Ferret on RedHat 7.3, Ruby 1.8 (let me know if more details would be helpful) using the gem install. I''ve tried every version >10 and it installs, but I get errors: Building native extensions. This could take a while... In file included from q_filtered_query.c:1: search.h:683: array size missing in ''comparables'' make: ***

I noticed that indexing seemed a little slow, so I tried reinstalling the 0.9.1 gem and noticed some errors while it was building the native extensions. Ferret still works with the pure ruby versions, but I''d love to take advantage of the c speed. I''m not real familiar with C, so I was wondering if anyone know what the errors are and if they can be fixed. Thanks -Lee ******
