I think I got something similar with a different gem once. Also failed
on the build and also got confused about whether or not it had been
installed. I just cleared everything out and did it again from scratch
and it worked OK. Took a couple tries though, IIRC.

we can deny everything, except that we have the possibility of being
better. simply reflect on that.

Ok, I had the same problem and have just fixed it.

What was happening was that it couldn’t find rbconfig.rb. On my
computer, this is located in:
/usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/i686-darwin8.9.1

but it was looking for it one directory up.

so from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/ go and put a symlink in thus:
sudo ln -s i686-darwin8.9.1/rbconfig.rb rbconfig.rb

and it all worked fine from then on.

Cheers,
Taryn

ok - a better solution… add “/usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/” to your $PATH
and all will be happy.
