From: Victor Grey Date: 2006-09-14T03:26:54+09:00 Subject: Re: 'gem install' vs. 'ruby install.rb'. A few questions. The sqlite3-ruby gem is working for me now on FreeBSD, but in case it helps someone: the gem has a dependency on swig, but it installs without it -- it just doesn't work. Even worse, it seems to work for some operations, but fails for others. This maneuver fixed my problem: gem uninstall sqlite3-ruby cd /usr/ports/devel/swig13 make install gem install sqlite3-ruby -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
