Unable to load gem #76

Closed xsrvmy closed 11 months ago

xsrvmy commented 7 years ago

I recently installed this gem, and the require 'mathematical' command fails to work with a file not found error. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling but that does not help. Even more confusing: the .so file actually exists but ruby cannot find it.

What's your Ruby version? What's the gem version? What's your operating system? Do you have these dependencies: https://github.com/gjtorikian/mathematical#building

xsrvmy commented 7 years ago

I am using ruby 2.3.1 and mathematical 1.6.9 ob ubuntu 16.04. I checked and the error and it was actually a file not found error for liblasem.so

gjtorikian commented 7 years ago

Do you have all those dependencies I mentioned?

A missing liblasem.so implies that the C program that mostly powers Mathematical could not be found. One reason that might be true is that the program did not compile at all.
