Re: [Gems-users] Problem when compiling ruby

[Philip Garcia <pcgarcia@xxxxxxxx>]

i've found that the build scripts can be a bit touchy at times.  Retry setting up your workspace directory (making sure there's a link to it from simics).  Then cd into the workspace directory, and try doing a make ruby or a make opal from there.  Sometimes this helps gets things set up.   Somehow the make scripts aren't seeing your simics install directory though, so double check you have a link to the install directory from simics_exec.  Sometimes just trying everything multiple times from different machines can help... Wish I could be more specific.
