Description

I am attempting to install Command-T on OS X 10.8 and have followed the instructions on http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=3025, however when I try to build the Makefile I get the following error: 

   Command-T[master+]/ruby/command-t
    ❯ ruby extconf.rb
   checking for ruby.h... no
   couldn't find ruby.h (required)

I am using system ruby, which is the one Vim was compiled (by myself) against. As you can see, Vim is compiled with ruby support: 

   
   Command-T[master+]/ruby/command-t
    ❯ ruby --version

From Vim:

   :ruby puts RUBY_VERSION
   1.8.7

I've located the ruby.h file needed in /System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/Headers/ruby.h and have tried both 

   export CPP_INCLUDE_PATH=/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/Headers/
   export C_INCLUDE_PATH=/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/Headers/

but neither of those make have_header('ruby.h') return true, and ruby extconf.rb continues to fail.

Any ideas?

    I sounds like you have a fairly vanilla system (using the the system Ruby usually makes things easier). I am not sure why ruby extconf.rb would fail; I would expect it to succeed.

    This may or may not work for you, but I put a copy of the kind of Makefile I would expect ruby extconf.rb to generate here; I made this on my pretty stock 10.8.5 install (system Ruby). It doesn't explicitly mention that headers path. You could try stealing the Makefile and see if it brings any joy.

    Closing due to lack of activity.
