When trying to install some gems (mysql and ferret, specifically), I've
run into the problem with rubygem returning the following error:
extconf.rb:13:in `require': no such file to load -- mkmf (LoadError)
I searched my HDD and there doesn't seem to be any mkmf.rb file. I'm
running Ubuntu Dapper, which comes with Ruby 1.8.4. However, mkmf.rb
seems to be nowhere to be found. Any suggestions on what to do? It
seems odd that the version shipped with Dapper should be missing such
an important file. Maybe I should uninstall the Dapper version and
download and install another distribution, but I'm hesitant to do so as
that can cause other problems. Or maybe mkmf.rb is now obsolete and
there's a workaround? Any clues/suggestions? Thanks!
