Hello all
I've been plowing through tutorials all day trying to install RMagick, and have gotten pretty far now I reckon, but have stumbled apon an error that I really don't know how to solve, nor get any useful info on.
When I try to install the gem, I get this message:
Building native extensions. This could take a while...
ERROR: Error installing rmagick:
ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

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.

You have to install development tools first.

I suppose that the part in bold is the important part, and I've done some research and have understood that stdint.h is some sort of header, but I don't know how to install it.
I also checked in the mkmf.log file which gave me this easy to read bit of info :

Anyone have any ideas?
Big thanks in advance for any help!
