I think this was user error on my part, but I'm still not sure what I
did. I installed ruby and rubygems on one host, then packaged them
into an rpm. I installed that rpm on another host, and that was the
host that I had the issues with. Other gems installed fine, but this
one was having the problem I reported. I successfully installed the
gem on the first host and packaged that with the rpm and it worked
fine on the second host. I'm all set for now and will dig more into
this when I have time. Thanks for the response.

Notice that it's also not finding socket or nsl or anything. There
is probably some other error that's preventing the compiler from
running to check this. I had this problem at some point because I
had mcpp installed and all calls to gcc had some argument it didn't
like. Look in mkmf.log for a more detailed account of what it
tried doing. What does it say in there?

Subject: [libxml-devel] installation problems on fc3
My installation attempt is failing, and claiming that I need libm.
I've included the output of a locate call also, which looks to me
like it includes a couple incarnations of libm.
So a couple questions.
How is it trying to find libm? Is there environment that I could be
setting to assist it?
How do I pass configuration options to gem (were I to decide to use --
without-libm), or do I have to do the tarball install to do that?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
