Subject: [ruby-core:28941] [Bug #3008](Rejected) Can't compile ruby without ruby

Issue #3008 has been updated by Yusuke Endoh.

Status changed from Open to Rejected

Hi,

2010/3/25 Christian Holtje <redmine@ruby-lang.org>:
> I tried to compile ruby 1.9.1-p376 on a new unix system(s). (Linux and Solaris).
> I get the error:
> executable host ruby is required. use --with-baseruby option.
> make: *** [miniprelude.c] Error 1

Yes, compiling trunk requires ruby to preprocess and generate code.


> How can I get ruby on a system if I can't compile ruby?

Please build and install tarball package first.  It does not require
ruby to be built.
