Bug #7943: Can't build from source or snapshots without pre-existing Ruby
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/7943

Author: devcurmudgeon (Paul Sherwood)
Status: Open
Priority: Normal
Assignee: 
Category: build
Target version: 
ruby -v: n/a


On a Linux system with autotools, GCC etc, 
but no pre-existing Ruby, make fails for the following snapshots:

http://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/snapshot.tar.gz
http://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/1.9/ruby-1.9.3-p392.tar.gz
http://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/2.0/ruby-2.0.0-p0.tar.gz

The error using the 2.0.0-p0 snapshot is 

make
	CC = gcc
	LD = ld
	LDSHARED = 
	CFLAGS = 
	XCFLAGS = -include ruby/config.h -include ruby/missing.h -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fstack-protector -fno-strict-overflow -fvisibility=hidden -DRUBY_EXPORT -fPIE
	CPPFLAGS =   -I. -I.ext/include/x86_64-linux -I./include -I.
	DLDFLAGS = -fstack-protector -pie  
	SOLIBS =
