Hi Emanuel,
thanks for your reply. I followed the advice on the page you were mentioning, but it runs consistently
into problems on ubuntu (7.10 and the brand new 8.04). This is due to a developer library that doesn't have the correct name, ruby-dev, but ruby1.8-dev.
The Makefile of Shoes determines the name of this library via some Ruby code, but it doesn't give the correct
answer.
If you want to distribute a Shoes application to someone who has ubuntu installed, he'll most probably not be able
to run it, if this ruby-dev problem cannot be solved.
So my question is why do the Config::<whatever> methods not find the correct ruby-dev versions,
and what could be done to fix this ?
Thank you very much,
Best regards,
Axel

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
