Subject: Re: UTF-8 problems

I to am having trouble with ruby on my mac after a build and install  
from source of v 1.8.5.

Ruby is running fine (so far) however irb broke.  I get the following  
error:

$ irb
dyld: NSLinkModule() error
dyld: Symbol not found: _rl_filename_completion_function
   Referenced from: /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/powerpc- 
darwin8.8.0/readline.bundle
   Expected in: flat namespace

Trace/BPT trap


Based on info from an online post I tried a rebuild with the  
configure option --with-readline-dir=/usr/local but that didn't help.

Has anyone else had this problem.
