Subject: [ruby-talk:14260] Need help with install

Hi:

I am installing ruby on a virtual server FreeBSD machine.
I actually have it installed, but I would like the install
to setup the proper library path so I don't have to set
RUBYLIB in a shell.

On the virtual server, instead of installing into
/usr/local/

you install into

/usr/home/<myname>/usr/local

I could not figure out which variable to set for configure
to handl this so I installed it thusly (that's a word, isn't it?)

./configuire
make
make DESTDIR=/usr/home/<myname> install

Now, this works great if I add the following to the env:
RUBYLIB=/user/home/<myname>/usr/local/lib/ruby/1.6

Ugh... How does Ruby know to look in /usr/local/lib/ruby/...
on a normal installation? What do I need to set so I don't
need the RUBYLIB env variable?

Thanks
