Can't install RMagic and Nokogiri on OS X 10.10 Yosemite

Question

Had to install Yosemite to fix issues with Wi-Fi but now installing rmagick fails. I have tried everything from every post on StackOverflow and Github but the install still failing.

I am using ruby 2.1.1p76 (2014-02-24 revision 45161) [x86_64-darwin13.0] installed via rbenv

$ brew remove imagemagick
$ brew install imagemagick --disable-openmp
$ cd /usr/local/Cellar/imagemagick/6.8.9-1/lib
$ ln -s libMagick++-6.Q16.3.dylib libMagick++.dylib
$ ln -s libMagickCore-6.Q16.dylib libMagickCore.dylib
$ ln -s libMagickWand-6.Q16.dylib libMagickWand.dylib
$ sudo ln -s /usr/bin/gcc /usr/bin/gcc-4.2
$ C_INCLUDE_PATH=/usr/local/Cellar/imagemagick/6.8.9-1/include/ImageMagick-6/ gem install rmagick

But failed:

Building native extensions.  This could take a while...

Gem files will remain installed in /Users/pain/.rbenv/versions/2.1.1/lib/ruby/gems/2.1.0/gems/rmagick-2.13.2 for inspection.

Any suggestions would really help. Thanks.

PS To my horror after running gem cleanup I realized that no matter what I do, I can't install nokogiri as well...

Answer 1

Following suggestion on Github I have removed gcc 4.2 and rebuilt Ruby. That fixed everything for rmagick and nokogiri.
