Build Failure with ruby 3.03 on Apple Silicon

TruePath opened this issue 3 years ago · 3 comments

When I try to build the gem on my M1 laptop using ruby 3.03p157 I get a compile error. Specifically, it fails with incompatible function pointer types. I'm attaching the log of a debug run of sudo gem install

gem_make.out

Looks like your environment doesn't have gmkdir.

Would you try this solution and see if it works? https://stackoverflow.com/a/38241778/1009442

Gah, I'm an idiot. Apparently I managed to disable coreutils when I installed gdu (go disk usage program) and I didn't notice it in the logs. So sorry for wasting your time. It builds fine now.

Glad I can help 😸

I'll close the issue. Let me know if you have any problem about installation.
