Adding FreeBSD and Bundler install instructions #21

Closed afair closed 9 years ago

afair commented 10 years ago

FreeBSD uses "non-standard" library locations, and needs Bundler config settings to deploy an application.

Thanks for submitting this PR! And apologies for the slow response.

Are these docs still correct, as far as you know? If so, I'd be happy to merge. Just wanted to check that the world hasn't moved on in the time it took me to respond.

OK, so these docs need to be updated with the --use-system-libraries arg, but otherwise, are they still accurate? I'm happy to edit them if so (I've modified the installation tutorial out from under this PR).

afair commented 9 years ago

I just tested again, and they work with the --use-system-libraries option. I didn't know about that arg when I retested, and lost time until I spotted that at the bottom of this page: http://www.nokogiri.org/tutorials/installing_nokogiri.html

I'll update with the new info.

Okay, I've rebased, reworked, and reworded my changes, trying to match style and for smooth merging. I don't want this to be any more painful for you. Thanks for maintaining this!

flavorjones commented 9 years ago

I'm just curious, before I merge, is there a particular reason that the source included with the Nokogiri gem aren't suitable for use on the FreeBSD platform? If so, is there an open issue for that already?

flavorjones commented 9 years ago

Merging, hope these are still up to date!
