Yes, I was aware. I tried again with proper 0.20.2. And everything succeeds. So I guess something with master. I usually build master in that repo, I guess I'll stick to the release for now. > The question of why master won't build for you is also interesting, but > a different question.

Yes, I have looked at what the official packages[1] do, I do exactly the same[2]. Essentially the spec file does the following: pushd bindings/ruby ruby extconf.rb --vendor --with-cflags="%{optflags}" make %{?_smp_mflags} popd where, _smp_mflags is -jN, and optflags is options for gcc. If you need the specific flags, I can try to look it up. > At the moment the only way to disable the ruby bindings (other than > hacking the build system) is not to have the ruby development files in > the build env. This may change by the time this is part of a release. Since everything is built in a chroot, I have control over the build environment via the spec file. If need be, I can disable it. However it would be interesting to know why master fails. Thanks for your comments.
