Ruby

hi,

not sure if this is a bug or a config issue … since ruby ships on
osx, i thought i’d check here first …

any hints ? thanks!

i’m building ruby-1.8.6-p111 w/

./configure
–prefix=/usr/local/ruby
–mandir=/usr/local/man
–disable-fat-binary
–enable-frame-address
–enable-largefile
–enable-pthread
–enable-shared
–enable-install-doc

a subsequent

make

is OK on OSX 10.4.10/Tiger, but, reproducibly fails at,

./mkconfig.rb:191: [BUG] Bus Error

make: *** [.rbconfig.time] Abort trap

I just did:

svn up
make realclean
./configure && make -j 4

and it built fine on (intel) leopard… I would recommend against
configure options and let it figure out what is best.

Try applying this patch:

Then, re-building.

hi laurent,

Try applying this patch:

http://chopine.be/lrz/ruby-osx-patches/ignore-gsetcontext.diff

Then, re-building.

i’d 1st checked the

1.8.6-p110 tarball
1.8.6-p111 tarball
branches/ruby_1_8 svn

and all 3 had the same problems …

next, applying the patch to

v1.8.6-p111 tarball

then

./configure ...
make
make install

as above is OK – no errors!

has this patch been committed to either 18-branch svn, or trunk?

and, can (should?) this patch be safely applied to a Tiger sys, as well?

thx for the help!

What is being patched?

Here is a description:

In Leopard, the setcontext/getcontext functions have been modified to
confirm to the UNIX norm, however, their implementation changed to not
use the default structure by default, which makes Ruby segfaulting
during initialization. This patch just force the non-set/getcontext
code path for Leopard environments, but use set/getcontext for systems
below.

Any suggestions on the MySQL brokenness?

What do you mean exactly by this?

If you refer to the MySQL extension build problem, check out:

Cool.

AFAIK, not yet. The patch was submitted to ruby-core a couple of weeks
ago though.

Only the Leopard build is concerned by this problem.

to install mysql gem on ppc leopard (10.5)
had to
sudo env ARCHFLAGS=“-arch ppc” gem install mysql –
–with-mysql-config=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config

(overcame errors with finding ruby.h,
*** extconf.rb failed ***
Could not create Makefile due to some reason, probably lack of
necessary libraries and/or headers. Check the mkmf.log file for more
details. You may need configuration options.

from

as a note.

Yes that link helps you when you don’t have xcode installed (which is,
by chance, a twist on the same problem).
