Over the past couple of days I've started looking at bringing the libxslt  
bindings up to date, but am having some 'fun' with the compile/linking and  
trying to have it work as a Rubygem.

Mainly the problem is that it requires the libxml-ruby headers, but we  
can't guarantee that they'll be present, or in the right place, and if  
libxml-ruby is installed without gems it's even more difficult. Passing in  
options to extconf is what I currently have (with some basic searching,  
../libxml etc) but obviously this precludes building from a Gem.

So anyway, here's the question: Does anyone know any links pertaining to  
building and linking interdependent ruby extensions? Or have any tips for  
me?

Cheers,
