Subject: fixrbconfig on Mac OS X Tiger

I'm trying to get the Mac OS X Ruby fix to run -- from p.24 of "Agile  
Web Development with Rails"

I can d/l it ok with

sudo gem install fixrbconfig

but then when I run sudo fixrbconfig I get:

> ====================
> /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/powerpc-darwin8.0/ruby.h does not exist.  This  
> probably means you haven't yet installed Xcode from the Tiger DVD.   
> You won't be able to compile Ruby extensions without it. Please  
> install it then rerun this program.

I tried the 'fix' for this listed here:

<http://www.smallroomsoftware.com/articles/2006/02/26/setting-up-ruby- 
on-rails-and-fastcgi-on-mac-os-x-server>

but when I do that I get:

pb17-upstairs:/usr/lib/ruby/1.8 bw$ ln -s universal-darwin8.0/*  
powerpc-darwin8.0
ln: powerpc-darwin8.0: No such file or directory

When I try it with sudo, I get the same thing:

pb17-upstairs:/usr/lib/ruby/1.8 bw$ sudo ln -s universal-darwin8.0/*  
powerpc-darwin8.0
ln: powerpc-darwin8.0: No such file or directory

That's as far as Googling got me.  Is there another source I'm  
overlooking?

Thanks.
