Hi,
I'm trying to install ruby-filemagic.
I tried sudo gem install ruby-filemagic -v 0.2.2 and got:
ERROR: Error installing ruby-filemagic:
ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.
/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/bin/ruby extconf.rb
checking for magic_open() in -lmagic... no
*** 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.
Provided configuration options:
--with-opt-dir
--without-opt-dir
--with-opt-include
...
According to this : http://blog.elctech.com/2009/08/31/installing-ruby-filemagic-on-macos-x-and-ubuntu/
I need the opt-dir setting. Opt is for mac ports right? And I'm using homebrew.
Any suggestions as to where to go from here would be great.
Installing directly from the gem still didn't work for me but the following command did: sudo env ARCHFLAGS="-arch x86_64" gem install ruby-filemagic -- --with-magic-include=/usr/local/include --with-magic-lib=/usr/local/lib/
