Re: [Rubycocoa-talk] packaging ruby within an RC app

[Eloy D. <elo...@gm...>]

I had a look at compiling hpricot as a universal bundle which works if
I edit the Makefile created by extconf.rb.

I had to add to both CFLAGS and the LDSHARED the following: -arch ppc -arch i386

What I'm wondering is how extconf works.... I thought it would pick up
the correct flags from the configure settings of ruby itself, however
running the extconf against the apple supplied universal ruby does not
add these flags. So does someone with more knowledge of extconf know
how we could patch this so any lib that builds with extconf
automatically gets the correct flags?

Cheers,
Eloy
