I ran into this as well installing the 0.5.3 gem on both CentOS and Fedora platforms. To get it working I had to rebuild the .so file manually after the gem install:
cd /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/libxml-ruby-0.5.3 ruby xml/libxml/extconf.rb make make install make distclean The make install step copied the libxml_so.so file to the correct directory whereas the gem installation didn't for some reason. Don't know what causes this, but it at least worked for me after doing the above. Christopher J. Bottaro wrote: > Hello, > I installed 0.5.3 via Gem, then removed 0.3.8.4.
