Problem while Installing Ruby GEM on Ubuntu

Wednesday, December 26th, 2007

When I was trying to install a ruby gem the other day on Ubuntu, I ran into the following error:

extconf.rb:1:in `require’: no such file to load — 
mkmf (LoadError)

After doing some research I figured out the following command will get things working in my favor:

sudo apt-get install ruby1.8-dev
