I read a lot of the issues here before, unfortunately non of the described solutions worked for me. I'm on OSX and using ruby-1.9.3-p448 via rvm. Everything freshly set up.
Then I did sudo gem install compass for getting compass and sass.
No error messages.
stnwbr$ ruby -v
ruby 1.9.3p448 (2013-06-27 revision 41675) [x86_64-darwin12.4.0]
stnwbr$ compass -v
Compass 0.12.2 (Alnilam)
stnwbr$ sass -v
Sass 3.2.10 (Media Mark)
but as soon as I do something like compass create or compass watch I get:
stnwbr$ compass create
LoadError on line ["51"] of /Users/stnwbr/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.3-p448/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.9.1/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb: cannot load such file -- breakpoint
Run with --trace to see the full backtrace
Including --trace the result is the following:
stnwbr$ compass create --trace

Unfortunately that's where my understanding stops. All ideas appreciated! Thank you.
Uninstall sass and reinstall it with the following:
gem uninstall sass
gem install sass
For some reason
gem install compass
brings along some bleeding edge version of sass which is causing this error.
