This bug is really unfortunate :( The easiest workaround is to just install an older version: gem install avro --version 1.7.5
The only significant difference between the 1.7.5 and the 1.7.6 Rubygem is that the JSON dependency was switched from yajl to multi_json. If you can live with yajl for now, 1.7.5 should work fine for you. Martin On 1 Apr 2014, at 21:07, Lenin Raj <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: I installed it by applying the patch. Went to lang/ruby/ and modified Rakefile as: p.runtime_dependencies = %w[multi-json] to p.runtime_dependencies = %w[multi_json] and `sudo rake install` I am able to do RPC using Ruby server/client. I want a python server actually. In the repo https://github.com/phunt/avro-rpc-quickstart, there is lib named "libsnappy-dev". Does anybody know its equivalent for Mac OS?

(Gem::UnsatisfiableDependencyError) Unable to resolve dependency: avro (= 1.7.6) requires multi-json (>= 0) I learnt that, this was fixed in 1.7.7 (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1459) but the gem page(http://rubygems.org/gems/avro) still shows 1.7.6. When do we get the latest version? or How can build the gem locally by applying the patch? Thanks, Lenin
