I''ve recently reloaded my system. For some reason, I can''t get wxruby to initialize. In irb, I see the following require ''rubygems'' require ''wx'' LoadError: libwx_gtk2u_media-2.8.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory - /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/wxruby-2.0.1-x86-linux/lib/wxruby2.so from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/wxruby-2.0.1-x86-linux/lib/wxruby2.so from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in `require'' from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/wxruby-2.0.1-x86-linux/lib/wx.rb:12 from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:36:in `gem_original_require'' from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:36:in `require'' from (irb):1 This seems to say that a file is missing.

Can anyone offer any help here? Thanks in advance ---Michael -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
Are you using ubuntu? if so, perhaps you download wrong gem because for new ubuntu, there is a special gem or if you want to be sure, check previous post about repo for wxruby On Mon, Jul 5, 2010 at 5:29 AM, Michael Satterwhite <lists at ruby-forum.com>wrote:> I''ve recently reloaded my system.

It may be that this extra C++ library can be installed via your package manager. Have a look for wx-2.8-xxx packages that are available but not installed. If not, the easiest way may to be compile your own wxRuby from source. You''ll need SWIG and the wx-2.8-dev files. The compile process should adapt and pick up the local configuration of wx. alex

The build of wxruby fails at link with /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lwx_gtk2u_media-2.8 collect2: ld returned 1 exit status rake aborted! I think I''m going to have to remove the version of wxwidgets supplied by PCLinuxOS and do a source install. If anyone knows another way around this, I''m certainly listening.

Before going that more drastic step, you could try force-ignoring MediaCtrl rake WXRUBY_EXCLUDED=MediaCtrl,MediaEvent alex

That solved the problem and wxruby seems to be working. At least require ''wx'' returns true. THANK YOU VERY MUCH! ---Michael -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
