I'm starting to talk a little with my environment, and it looks like I broke it. Thanks so much in advance for any help you can offer.
The main symptom is that when I try to run rvm install 1.9.3 I get the following trace:
Installing Ruby from source to: /Users/duncanstuart/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.3-p0, this may take a while depending on your cpu(s)... ruby-1.9.3-p0 - #fetching ruby-1.9.3-p0 - #extracted to /Users/duncanstuart/.rvm/src/ruby-1.9.3-p0 (already extracted) Fetching yaml-0.1.4.tar.gz to /Users/duncanstuart/.rvm/archives Extracting yaml-0.1.4.tar.gz to /Users/duncanstuart/.rvm/src Configuring yaml in /Users/duncanstuart/.rvm/src/yaml-0.1.4.

Halting the installation.
The contents of yaml/configure.log are as follows:
[2012-01-04 02:06:11] ./configure --prefix="/Users/duncanstuart/.rvm/usr" checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c checking whether build environment is sane... yes checking for a thread-safe mkdir -p... config/install-sh -c -d checking for gawk... no checking for mawk... no checking for nawk... no checking for awk... awk checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes checking for gcc... /usr/bin/gcc-4.2 checking whether the C compiler works... no configure: error: in `/Users/duncanstuart/.rvm/src/yaml-0.1.4': configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables See `config.log' for more details
I suspect the key lines are:
checking for gcc... /usr/bin/gcc-4.2 checking whether the C compiler works... no
The contents of yaml/make.log and yaml/make.install.log same (except, of course, the first two lines)
The contents of the config.log file are included at the end of this question (because it is very long!). The significant line is as follows:
`ld: library not found for -lcrt1.10.6.o`
I get the same errors when running rvm install ... with any other version of ruby or when trying to install something using Homebrew, for example. brew install wget
My theory
I suspect this is due to incorrect uninstallation and reinstallation of Xcode 3.2.6 - see the "History" below for full details of what I did.
I looked at a ton of stackoverflow messages, but no one answered this:
My setting
- I am running Snow Leopard 10.6.8
- I tried installing Xcode 3.2.6 on January 3rd, and I think it succeeded
- I have rvm 1.10.0 (latest version at time of writing)
The following lines are in /usr/local/bin :
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root 7 3 Jan 02:42 /usr/bin/gcc -> gcc-4.0 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root 93072 23 Sep 2007 /usr/bin/gcc-4.0 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root 166128 24 Oct 2010 /usr/bin/gcc-4.2
If your advice is “upgrade to Leo and install the latest Xcode,” let it be.
History
Here are the steps that I followed: I'm not sure which is appropriate, so I have listed all of this.
- I had a working rvm instance that was able to successfully install everything before ruby 1.9.2. I believe that I used Xcode 3.2.6
- I have macports installed - I can't remember why.
- I recently installed Homebrew for one reason or another.
When trying to run rvm install 1.9.3 , I got an error that, it seems to me, is similar to this:
openssl_missing.h:173: error: conflicting types for 'BN_rand_range' /usr/local/Cellar/openssl/0.9.8r/include/openssl/bn.h:411: error: previous declaration of 'BN_rand_range' was here openssl_missing.h:177: error: conflicting types for 'BN_pseudo_rand_range' /usr/local/Cellar/openssl/0.9.8r/include/openssl/bn.h:412: error: previous declaration of 'BN_pseudo_rand_range' was here openssl_missing.c:270: error: conflicting types for 'BN_rand_range' /usr/local/Cellar/openssl/0.9.8r/include/openssl/bn.h:411: error: previous declaration of 'BN_rand_range' was here openssl_missing.c:278: error: conflicting types for 'BN_pseudo_rand_range' /usr/local/Cellar/openssl/0.9.8r/include/openssl/bn.h:412: error: previous declaration of 'BN_pseudo_rand_range' was here
The inclusion in Google suggested that it was a kind of conflict in which there were two openssl definitions on the machine (as far as I could understand).
Keeping in mind that there was a warning from Homebrew about conflicts with MacPorts, I tried to uninstall MacPorts using the instructions in the Macports Wiki . I also removed loading MacPorts related strings from my .bash_profile
This did not work and because I did not understand what I was doing, I uninstalled Xcode using sudo <Xcode>/Library/uninstall-devtools --mode=all .
This, of course, worsened the situation and led to the errors shown above. So I reinstalled Xcode from the original CD - it turned out to be Xcode 3.0 .
This did not fix these errors, so I tried to uninstall this version of Xcode . Unfortunately, this requires manually changing the system versions in uninstall scripts, as described here
Finally, I downloaded and installed Xcode 3.2.6 (the latest Xcode available for Snow Leopard?) And ran out of ideas.
config.log
This is the contents of the config.log file - found in /Users/duncanstuart/.rvm/src/yaml-0.1.4/
This file contains any messages produced by compilers while running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake. It was created by yaml configure 0.1.4, which was generated by GNU Autoconf 2.67.
