Hi, I know little about suse as well. I think the package manager is
yast - isn't it? Did you install ruby through suse or from source?
What do you get when you try to require 'openssl' - here's my session
using irb:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ irb
irb(main):001:0> require 'openssl'
=> true
irb(main):002:0>
If you're getting a load file error here then:
If you installed ruby through suse packages load up yast (or whatever
it is) and browse through the ruby stuff and look for ruby add-on
packages. For instance, in debian there's a libopenssl-ruby package
which I can load with aptitude/apt-get (debian's equivalent of yast).
[Someone who knows suse could step in here.]
If you compiled and installed from source (your ruby is probably in /
usr/local/bin or /opt ), then I would install the header files for
openssl using suse's package manager (as well as openssl itself) and
then recompile ruby. I think openssl-devel might be the package to
look for in yast (or whatever it is).
