Hi,
Installing the ruby-libvirt gem fails on FreeBSD 10.2 since it can't locate
the lib and include dir. Installing with:
gem install ruby-libvirt --
--with-libvirt-include=/usr/local/include/libvirt
--with-libvirt-lib=/usr/local/lib/libvirt.so
works fine.
It would be great if this worked out of the box, e.g. detects that it is
building on BSD and applies the above settings as default, or at least it
could be provided as a hint if running make fails to guide ruby noobs, like
me.
Hi Rickard,
I tried it on my system and it seems to work fine without manually
providing include and lib paths.
From what I can see, it uses pkg-config to detect CFLAGS and LDFLAGS
(I
could be wrong here though because I'm not familiar with Ruby).
Could you please check if you have this working:
$ pkg-config --libs --cflags libvirt
-I/usr/local/include -L/usr/local/lib -lvirt
$
If that does not work, could you please describe how did you do the
libvirt installation on your system?
Thanks,
