Subject: [ruby-core:68383] [Ruby trunk - Bug #10906] Problem building on Solaris 10 - symbol rb_infinity not found

Issue #10906 has been updated by Daniel Berger.


I don't know what to tell you. For anyone reading this, to get around it I did this:

    configure --disable-install-doc --disable-install-rdoc
    make
    make install

It failed when it tried to install bundle gems, but core Ruby was still installed by that point. So then I went to ext/date and added this line near the top of date_core.c

    const union bytesequence4_or_float rb_infinity = {{0x7f, 0x80, 0x00, 0x00}};

I also had to fix the Makefile:

    top_srcdir = ../..

Then make; make install

Now it's working.

Hi,

Solaris 10
gcc 4.8
ruby 2.2.0 current stable

I did configure/make, and it works until it tries to generate rdoc:
