Subject: incompatible libruby-static.a using mkmf in bitnami stack

Hi,

Im trying to install ruby-oci8 on Red hat and having difficulty getting
the make command to run on the unpacked gem.

The output from mkmf.log is below - I think the key part is 'skipping
incompatible .. libruby-static.a'

The operating system is 64 bit the ruby install is 32 bit, Im not sure
if this could be causing the problem. The whole system is running as a
Bitnami stack so Im not sure if / how I can modify it.

Any help gratefully received !!!

Many thanks
Ben
