gem install ruby-debug19 - *** extconf.rb failed ***

I recently blew away and re-installed rvm to fix some issues.

Now, however, when I try and install ruby-debug19 I get:

$ gem install ruby-debug19

... then ...

Building native extensions.  This could take a while...
ERROR:  Error installing ruby-debug19:

Gem files will remain installed in /Users/snowcrash/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.2.1/gems/linecache19-0.5.12 for inspection.
Results logged to /Users/snowcrash/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.2.1/extensions/x86_64-darwin-14/2.2.0-static/linecache19-0.5.12/gem_make.out

And the log just contains these lines.

Any suggestions?

Solution

  • ruby-debug19 only works on Ruby 1.9. For Ruby 2.0 and above use byebug.

    gem install byebug
