Dear all,

when trying to install either Shoes directly from source or distributing a Shoes application on kubuntu 8.04,
I get the following error:

shoes build options:
CC       = cc
RUBY     = /usr/local
OPTIONS  =
ruby 1.8.6 (2008-03-03 patchlevel 114) [i686-linux]
CC -o dist/libshoes.so
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lruby
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [dist/libshoes.so] Error 1

This is somehow due to the fact that there's no  ruby-dev library, only a ruby1.8-dev available on kubuntu, and the Ruby call of Config from the
Makefile of Shoes cannot recognize this. How can I overcome this problem (not only, but also on other people's computers) ?

Thank you very much,

Best regards,

Axel
