[Rubycocoa-talk] Installation Issues on Tiger

[Chris C. <cdc...@gm...>]

So today I went to build RubyCocoa on my tiger machine.  To be sure, I
reinstalled Ruby with --enable-shared and things.  When doing the
binary installer I got a very generic "Error: Please try again
message".  I tried building from source and am getting this error
message after a lot of processing:

Building from trunk yields this:

Any ideas?  Am I missing something huge?
