I just pushed my test for installing & running nokogiri to the gem-extensions
branch in this repo. If anyone has any ideas on this, I'd love to hear. Traveling Ruby is not really the right solution here, it was just a quick way to get started on this. Has anyone figured out building Tokaido on Linux (@mpapis)?
use http://rvm.io/binaries/ - tokaido (the binary ruby version) is build exactly the same way as Linux version - with: rvm install --movable
the main thing you have to switch to use different version manager when you switch plathorms
Thanks @mpapis. I saw these releases when I trying to build tokaido but wasn't sure if any of them worked on arch. I'm downloading them all now to see what works and what doesn't. If worse comes to worse I guess I let rvm install --movable
download and compile a version then package it up for arch, right?
Looks like the latest Ubuntu build works great! Tried it with nokogiri & rmagick. Need to try a full Rails install before considering this issue closed.
I have now used vruby for a full Rails install, this is looking good.
Using Traveling Ruby may be a problem. I missed this when reading the docs the first time around. I know native extensions work great with Tokaido, I've run many Rails apps with it on my Mac. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to get Tokaido to build on my Linux machine (ran into problems with dependencies in SM). So we'll need another option. I want to stick with a pre-compiled Ruby; the install is practically instant.
