Having Issues with Curb gem on Mac Snow Leopard

This has consumed hours of my time.

in the console i run: require 'curb'

i get the error:

LoadError: dlopen(/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/taf2-curb-0.5.4.0/lib/curb_core.bundle, 9): no suitable image found. Did find:

I have tried uninstalling the gem and reinstalling a number of versions with ARCHFLAGS="-arch i386" No errors or warnings are given in the install When i try and install with: rake install I get this error as well.

I am working on a mac ox 10.6 with ruby 1.8

i notice there are libcurl.4.dylib, libcurl.3.dylib, and libcurl.2.dlib and libcurl.dylib in my /usr/lib folder...

I did an install of the newest 7.20 curl package.

I have tried to install from the source as well and get this error

Suggestions?

回答1:

just try :

sudo env ARCHFLAGS="-arch x86_64" gem install curb

Worked for me.

回答2:

I had a very similar issue that also consumed hours of my time. I'm running into more problems later when trying to use a proxy but to get around that error I had to download the libcurl source from sourceforge and build it.

I believe Snow Leopard dropped PPC support and this library may not be x86 native. Recompiling fixes this issue (possibly), so give it a try.

This issue occurred for me when switching from rvm to chruby.

/Users/lfender/source/rentals/vendor/ruby/1.9.1/gems/curb-0.7.15/lib/curb.rb:1:in `require':
dlopen(/Users/lfender/source/rentals/vendor/ruby/1.9.1/gems/curb-0.7.15/lib/curb_core.bundle,   
9) Library not loaded: /Users/lfender/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.3-p484/lib/libruby.1.9.1.dylib (LoadError)
Reason: image not found - /Users/lfender/source/rentals/vendor/ruby/1.9.1/gems/curb-0.7.15/lib/curb_core.bundle

Note this bit: Library not loaded: /Users/lfender/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.3-p484/lib/libruby.1.9.1.dylib. Because I switch my ruby versioning system from rvm, I needed to rebuild the gem with the correct packages.
