I need to get some help compiling ruby 1.8.5-p2 on my MacBook Pro.
Where
would be a good place to post my build log and the errors I get when
running
‘make test-all’? What other info will be helpful to provide?
Thanks.

I don’t know if I can help you with the errors, but I just did this on
my
mac and saved the output… maybe this will help you… there’s more
than just ruby though… it’s mysql, ruby, rails, imagemagick, mongrel,
etc…
Note there are a couple of spots down below that do a “setenv”. That
will only work in tcsh, not bash. Adjust as necessary…
Hope this helps…
MYSQL:
- Double-click the drive image to mount it
- Locate the MySQL installer (a file named something like
mysql-standard-5.0.27-osx10.4-i686.pkg) and run it, authenticating as
needed - Double-click MySQLStartupItem.pkg, authenticate, and let it install
- Double-click MySQL.prefPane and install it, deciding whether to make
it
available to just the current user, or for all system users
Once the install is complete, start the MySQL server using the
newly-installed control panel.
Note: MySQL installs with a default user of root which has no password.
Please read this page about MySQL usernames and passwords and set a good
one.
Subversion:
- Just install it like any other mac app.

To build on OSX from source, I followed the instructions posted on:
The instructions are very easy to follow (he assumes no prior
experience) and they leave a well organized install on your machine. I
now use a variant of his instructions for Ubuntu installs as well since
his approach was far superior to my “hammer till it works” style.
p.s the article may be a little out of date on versions but I had no
problems with the latest releases.
Hope this helps
