Question

I'm trying to install Ruby 2.0.0-p195 using rbenv on a Mac (Mountain Lion) and got this error.

The Ruby openssl extension was not compiled. Missing the OpenSSL lib?

When I ran brew install openssl it said

Warning: openssl-1.0.1e already installed

Following a solution on this thread https://github.com/sstephenson/ruby-build/issues/305 I tried to install latest stable this way and got the same error

env CFLAGS='-g -O2' RUBY_CONFIGURE_OPTS="--with-readline-dir=`brew --prefix readline`" rbenv install 2.0.0-p195

Any ideas?

The missing library is libssl*-dev* / openssl*-dev*, depending your distribution.
