I struggled to install wagon on a fresh ubuntu install until realizing I was missing two system dependencies, ruby-dev and g++. After installing them it worked. I installed them with:
sudo apt-get install ruby-dev g++
Just for reference, here is the error I was getting without these packages:
vagrant@vagrant-ubuntu-trusty-64:~$ sudo gem install locomotivecms_wagon
Building native extensions. This could take a while...
