I'm trying to install merb on a fresh isntall of debian etch.
I installed merb from rubygems by first installing rubygems via the
instructions at
http://wiki.merbivore.com/howto/installation/gems

Then when I did installl merb suing gem install merb, I got the
following message:

Building native extensions.  This could take a while...
Building native extensions.  This could take a while...
ERROR:  Error installing merb:
        ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

        --without-sqlite3-include=${sqlite3-dir}/include
        --with-sqlite3-lib
        --without-sqlite3-lib=${sqlite3-dir}/lib


Gem files will remain installed in /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/
do_sqlite3-0.9.6 for inspection.

I didn't know what to do so I tried creating a test app following the
isntructions at
http://wiki.merbivore.com/howto/gettingstarted/firstapp

merb-gen app my-app worked perfectly, but then when I tried
merb-gen resource article title:string I got the following message

Loading init file from /home/max/my-app/config/init.rb
Loading /home/max/my-app/config/environments/development.rb
 ~
 ~ FATAL: The gem dm-aggregates (= 0.9.6, runtime), [] was not found
 ~
 ~
 ~ FATAL: The file dm-aggregates was not found
 ~

I decided to come here before doing gem install dm-aggregates, because
the last time I tried to install merb I got into this dependency hell
where I ran merb, installed a new gem as dictated to me by an error
message, and then repeated that process half a dozen times more times,
until I was asked to install something I couldn't.

This is something like my third or fourth attempt to install merb. I'm
starting to think I should wait until 1.0.

Any help would be appreciated.
