I'm currently trying to install the latest version of Ferret (0.10.9) on my Ubuntu Dapper (6.06) system. I have tried the gem, but it does not generate the ferret_ext.so file. Ideally I would prefer to install from the gem, but if source works, I'm fine with that too.
I am now trying an install from source, but when I run the command '$ rake ext' I get the following error when it reaches the 'make' command: make rake aborted! Command failed with status (127): [make] /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.1/lib/rake.rb:722:in `sh' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.1/lib/rake.rb:729:in `sh' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.1/lib/rake.rb:812:in `sh' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.1/lib/rake.rb:807:in `sh' /home/dougal/ferret-0.10.9/Rakefile:137 /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.1/lib/rake.rb:387:in `execute' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.1/lib/rake.rb:387:in `execute' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.1/lib/rake.rb:357:in `invoke' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/thread.rb:135:in `synchronize' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.1/lib/rake.rb:350:in `invoke' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.1/lib/rake.rb:364:in `invoke_prerequisites' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.1/lib/rake.rb:999:in `each' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.1/lib/rake.rb:363:in `invoke_prerequisites' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.1/lib/rake.rb:356:in `invoke' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/thread.rb:135:in `synchronize' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.1/lib/rake.rb:350:in `invoke' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.1/lib/rake.rb:1906:in `run' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.1/lib/rake.rb:1906:in `run' /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.1/bin/rake:7 /usr/bin/rake:18 This is slightly lost on me as I am a Ruby newbie, hopefully someone will be able to tell me what is going on.
