Hi, I’ve been stuck trying to get this to work for days. Not sure how
to get this to work. Any help would be very much appreciated.
I’m running OS X 10.4.10 and I installed the latest TclTkAquaBI
(8.4.10) using the standard non-custom install.
Then I downloaded ruby-1.8.6 to my desktop. I ran the following
commands:
cd ~/Desktop/ruby-1.8.6
autoconf
./configure --enable-tcltk-framework
make
sudo make install
make gave the following warnings:
dln.c: In function ‘dln_load’:
dln.c:1472: warning: ‘NSIsSymbolNameDefined’ is deprecated (declared
at /usr/include/mach-o/dyld.h:150)
dln.c:1475: warning: ‘NSLookupAndBindSymbol’ is deprecated (declared
at /usr/include/mach-o/dyld.h:158)
there were also a lot of these:
warning: pointer targets in passing argument 1 of
‘some_string_or_file’ differ in signedness
with sudo make install bash gave the following:
./miniruby ./instruby.rb --dest-dir="" --extout=".ext" --make=“make”
–mflags="" --make-flags="" --installed-list .installed.list –
mantype=“doc”
installing binary commands
installing command scripts
installing library scripts
installing headers
installing manpages
installing extension objects
installing extension scripts
That seemed to work allright, but irb was broken. Typing “irb” into
bash gave the following:
dyld: NSLinkModule() error
dyld: Symbol not found: _rl_filename_completion_function
Referenced from: /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/i686-darwin8.10.1/
readline.bundle
Expected in: flat namespace
To fix irb, I did the following:
cd ~/Desktop/ruby-1.8.6/ext/readline
ruby extconf.rb
make
sudo cp readline.bundle /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/i686-
darwin8.10.1
Then I created a few one-line test files:
tktest.rb: require ‘tk’
tcltktest.rb: require ‘tcltk’
tcltklibtest.rb: require ‘tcltklib’
They all gave the same error:
dyld: NSLinkModule() error
dyld: Symbol not found: _Tcl_GetVar2
Referenced from: /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/i686-darwin8.10.1/
tcltklib.bundle
Expected in: flat namespace
Trace/BPT trap
Another one-line test file:
tcltest.rb: require ‘tcl’
gave a different error:
tktest.rb:1:in `require’: no such file to load – tcl (LoadError)
from tktest.rb:1
So I tried to fix tk sort of the same way irb was fixed:
cd ~/Desktop/ruby-1.8.6/ext/tk
ruby extconf.rb
But it gave an error:
checking for Tcl/Tk Framework… /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/mkmf.rb:
176:in initialize': Permission denied - mkmf.log (Errno::EACCES) from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/mkmf.rb:176:inopen’
from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/mkmf.rb:176:in open' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/mkmf.rb:203:inpostpone’
from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/mkmf.rb:542:in checking_for' from extconf.rb:20:infind_framework’
from extconf.rb:33
I then tried “sudo ruby extconf.rb” and bash gave me the following:
checking for Tcl/Tk Framework… yes
checking for t_open() in -lnsl… no
checking for socket() in -lsocket… no
checking for dlopen() in -ldl… yes
checking for log() in -lm… no
creating Makefile
Next, I tried both “make” and “sudo make” and they both gave the same
feedback:
make: Nothing to be done for `all’.
I think the problem might be in configuring ~/Desktop/ruby-1.8.6/ext/
tk/extconf.rb or somewhere else.
As I said, I’ve been banging my head against this for days now, trying
to get it to work. I would really appreciate any help at all even if
it’s just to point me in the right direction. Thanks.
