Failed to install libtries.a

[eeevanbbb]

When I try to install triez via the following command:

sudo gem install triez -v '1.0.4',

I get the following error:

Building native extensions.  This could take a while...
ERROR:  Error installing triez:

When I clone the repo and rake, I get the following:

Any idea what could be the problem? (I am on MacOS 10.12.1 and I have the Xcode command-line tools installed.)

Seems the clang command doesn't generate the object files ... I will change how it compiles the required library.

ls -l ext/build returns with nothing.

Just released a new gem 1.0.5 to fix this problem. Please try the new one.

It worked, thanks so much!!
