I've just tried setting up a new development machine and I'm stuck installing the ffi |
2 |
gem for ruby. |

According to a bug I found (can't find it now I'm afraid) the gentoo devs do not |
5 |
support installing gems via the gem command and directed the user to use the |
6 |
dev-ruby/ffi package. Unfortnately, that package is absolutely ancient and unusable. |

Anyway, I've got the ffi library install from portage, but when I try to `gem install |
9 |
ffi`, I get the output seen in the attachement. |

The same gem installs just fine on an ubuntu box, but...well it's ubuntu and I don't |
12 |
want to use that (besides it's just a VM). |

I'd really like to get this fixed so I can get started on a new project. |
