Answer 2 · 2014-05-09T01:40:29.000Z

Is this issue ongoing?
I'm just in trouble with the issue.

Answer 3 · 2014-05-09T08:28:28.000Z

Yes, I am having this issue with 1.6.6 and against 2.1.2 as well.

Answer 4 · 2014-05-09T09:03:44.000Z

Same here. Issue with 1.6.6 with ruby 2.1.2 on OSX 10.9.2

Answer 5 · 2014-05-11T15:10:11.000Z

same here!

Answer 6 · 2014-05-12T12:55:17.000Z

👍 and there is a PR for that issue.

Answer 7 · 2014-05-13T06:50:36.000Z

Same here....

Answer 8 · 2014-05-13T15:38:12.000Z

Support for Ruby 2.1.2p95 would be groovy.

Answer 9 · 2014-05-13T23:00:56.000Z

Same here!

Answer 10 · 2014-05-14T07:40:17.000Z

Hey folks, please refrain from posting spammy +1s and pinging everyone subscribed to this thread. I think the point that this is broken on Ruby 2.1.2 has been made and proved, and either someone with the time and knowledge will submit a fix PR or you tackle this and do the same. I don't think putting +1 comments on this thread will speed things up. Thanks!

Answer 11 · 2014-05-14T08:09:58.000Z

There's already a PR #126

Answer 12 · 2014-05-15T10:52:47.000Z

@cldwalker @astashov @mark-moseley @nobu,
Hey guys, any news from this one?
Thanks.

Answer 13 · 2014-05-15T21:45:49.000Z

I've having the same issue.

Answer 14 · 2014-05-16T04:23:42.000Z

I am having this problem on linux as well, it's not confined to mac.

Answer 15 · 2014-05-16T16:47:34.000Z

For ruby 2.X debugging, I now recommend byebug or debugger2. I've updated the README to indicate this. Reasons for this:

debugger has never had full ruby 2.x support. An open call was made to the community more than a year ago but no one stepped up. See #47.
The rails community has thrown its weight behind byebug for 2.x debugging.

In a week, I will be closing all ruby2 issues including this one. I will hold off on closing them if someone takes up working on 2.X support. I'm happy to provide github and gem push access as needed.
Is @astashov, @nobu, @sunaku, @windwiny or anyone else interested in adding 2.X support for debugger?

This requires doing the following with ko1's pull request, #69:

Resolve merge conflicts. A fair amount has landed on master since the pull request
Disable tests and features that have not been ported to 2.x e.g. post-mortem and threading. Disabling should only be done for 2.x rubies.
Ensure all tests pass on 2.X rubies
No longer depend on ruby internals (see #47 for some discussion). This means there should be no dependence on https://github.com/cldwalker/debugger-ruby_core_source. This should be resolved by the pull request but is important to state nontheless.

I am also looking for 1.9.X maintainers if anyone is interested

Answer 17 · 2014-05-16T17:16:46.000Z

What are the pros and cons of byebug vs debugger2?

Answer 18 · 2014-05-16T17:25:56.000Z

Our reason for using debugger (with Ruby 2.1) is that pry-debugger currently depends on it. /cc @nixme

Answer 19 · 2014-05-16T17:31:44.000Z

@nathany You can use pry-byebug instead of pry-debugger, and that avoids the dependency on debugger. It only supports MRI 2.0.0 or newer.

From its gemspec:

  # Dependencies
  gem.required_ruby_version = '>= 2.0.0'

  gem.add_runtime_dependency 'pry', '~> 0.9.12'
  gem.add_runtime_dependency 'byebug', '~> 2.7'

Answer 20 · 2014-05-16T17:31:44.000Z

@nathany https://github.com/deivid-rodriguez/pry-byebug is a fork of pry-debugger that should do the job.

Answer 21 · 2014-05-16T17:52:51.000Z

thanks @nixme.

Answer 22 · 2014-05-18T09:54:20.000Z

+1 for 2.1.1

Answer 23 · 2014-05-23T15:50:54.000Z

Closing since I'm scoping debugger to just 1.9.2 and 1.9.3. For more see above #125 (comment)

Answer 24 · 2014-05-29T21:04:02.000Z

I've the same issue with debugger 1.6.6 and 1.6.8with ruby 2.1.2 on OSX 10.9.2.

Answer 25 · 2014-05-29T21:09:30.000Z

@icaroseara use byebug instead of debugger. or debugger2.

Answer 26 · 2014-05-29T21:19:52.000Z

@Hydrozen Thanks!

Answer 27 · 2014-10-01T12:56:15.000Z

+1 for Ruby 2.1.3

Answer 28 · 2014-10-01T13:33:20.000Z

I believe we are supposed to use byebug for ruby 2+.

Answer 29 · 2016-12-28T22:11:48.000Z

it is fixed or still ongoing? every time i try to install pry-byebug or byebug or debugger or debugger2 i get this:

ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.
