gem install psych error


I'm trying to bundle install a rails project but I'm stuck... when I try to run gem install psych all I get is this:

Building native extensions.  This could take a while...
ERROR:  Error installing psych:

yaml.h is missing. Try 'port install libyaml +universal' or 'yum install libyaml-devel'

Gem files will remain installed in /Users/gibatronic/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p327/gems/psych-1.3.4 for inspection.

I'm running ruby 1.9.3p327 with rails 3.2.12 on OS X 10.8.2

I've already installed libyaml 0.1.4 with rvm pkg install libyaml

I really don't know what to do anymore!


Solution

  • install libyaml

    port install libyaml +universal
