From source$ gem install rake rake-compiler $ git clone git://github.com/theforeman/ruby-newt $ cd ruby-newt $ gem build newt.gemspec $ sudo gem install newt-*.gem

REQUIREMENTSThe Newt library and headers.
¶ ↑
Fedora$ dnf install ruby-devel newt-devel
¶ ↑
Ubuntu$ sudo apt-get install libnewt-dev
¶ ↑
Mac OS X$ sudo port install libnewt
Then, define these environment variables:
$ export LIBRARY_PATH="/opt/local/lib/" $ export C_INCLUDE_PATH="/opt/local/include/"
For some reason, it does not always find the header so symlink it:
$ sudo ln -s /opt/local/include/newt.h /usr/include/

Migrating from 0.9 to 1.0The following changes break compatibility with version 0.9 and existing programs using the ruby-newt library may need to be changed.
-
The following method names have been renamed to create a more consistent interface.
-
takesFocus
has been renamed totakes_focus
-
setCurrentByKey
has been renamed toset_current_by_key
-
setData
has been renamed toset_data
-
clearSelection
has been renamed toclear_selection
-
-
The
get
/set
methods have been removed from theRadiobutton
component. -
The
get_current
method forListbox
has been generalized and theget_current_as_number
andget_current_as_string
methods have been removed. -
Garbage collection of components and forms has been implemented. This will break applications that reuse components on multiple forms.
-
The publicly global
CALLBACK_HASH
has been removed. Applications that modify this hash directly will break. -
The various add_callback methods no longer return the previously set callback when called with no parameters.
-
Use

Use
set_current
instead ofset
