Special thanks to Tobias Luetke, who forwarded the gem to Chad

I tried the instruction tutorial on http://maczealots.com/tutorials/ruby-on-rails/ and in the middle of trying to install fixrbconfig I got an error: usr/lib/ruby/1.8/powerpc-darwin8.0/ruby.h does not exist. This probably means you haven''t yet installed Xcode from the Tiger DVD. You won''t be able to compile Ruby extensions without it. Please install it then rerun this
