 I have read a couple of posts regarding compiling Ruby on HP-UX 11i, and
I'm hoping for a little more insight on the exact requirements of doing tha=
t
type of install.  Basically, the posts I have read haven't been
understandable by someone like me.  an earlier post referred to "disable
ipv6 and wide-getaddrinfo so it uses Ruby's built-in getaddrinfo()
instead."  I have no idea how to do that, I'd love an example command or
something.  I am hoping that I can create a step-by-step procedure for
installation on any HP-UX server, for people like me, where the high-level
instructions are not helpful.  Without further ado, here is where I've
managed to get so far.

1.  Download the 1.8.4 tar.gz file
2.  run ./configure
3.  run gmake (not make)
4.  run gmake all
at this point, I got the following error:

=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
so, I decided to play with the ext/Setup file mentioned in the README. By
uncommenting 'option nodynamic' I'm able to get a clean gmake, and then
'gmake all', and I have a supposedly working ruby install (at least irb
functions, and a very basic script works).  The 'ri' command didn't work
though, so on to that....

so now, I want documentation, which seems to be available by running gmake
install-all
this fails after running for quite some time with the following error:
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=

My Ruby-expert friend believes this is because I'm missing some C headers.
Any Ruby install gurus have an idea of what I should try here, or what I'm
missing?
