Failed to build iconv gem on ruby 1.9.2

I fail to install the 'iconv' gem, because of weird build errors.

I have build the 'libiconv' from source and linked the .h and .dylib into the rvm's include and lib directory. When I run

gem install iconv

Gem outputs strange build errors:

Building native extensions. This could take a while...

ERROR:  Error installing iconv:

How do I make it install and build properly.

Thanks


For what it's worth - I was able to build 1.9.2 p136 using RVM and linking to libiconv I installed with Homebrew. This allowed me to use the JSON gem without problems. I wrote a quick blog post about it here: http://www.v25media.com/blog/read/forcing_ruby_1_9_2_via_rvm_to_use_iconv but the gist of it is:

$ brew install libiconv
$ rvm remove 1.9.2
$ rvm install 1.9.2 --with-iconv-dir=/usr/local/Cellar/libiconv/1.13.1


In my case, I was just installing iconv for mechanize so I could run script

I already had libiconv installed w/ brew

gem install iconv -- --with-iconv-dir=/usr/local/Cellar/libiconv/1.13.1

Why/how did you build iconv ? And more importantly, where did you install it ? Because I think gem can find the system libiconv but fails to find the headers because they're not in the normal search paths.

A few suggestions:

Easiest way is probably to use MacPorts and install iconv with that: sudo port install libiconv

Or if you want/need to install your own version, make sure it gets installed in the /usr/local subtree (it's meant for software that an administrator compiled which is exactly what you're doing). So you should end up with /usr/local/include/iconv.h and /usr/local/lib/libiconv.dylib.


I have the exact same problem. My freshly installed OS X 10.6 didn't have iconv, so I downloaded iconv from http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/libiconv/ and ran

./configure
make
sudo make install

Installed fine, iconv.h and libiconv.dylib are where they're supposed to be, but gem installation rvm gem install iconv fails with the same errors.

I don't have enough C-fu in me to interpret the problem any further, but I would guess this could be a result of some sort of version mismatch? Maybe the iconv gem expects to have some older version of libiconv? I'd like to get some confirmation either way with this, before I fudge my system up with random versions of iconv.


I think I have found out why ! Looks like the Iconv gem is not yet 1.9.x compliant, so it will not build.


Under Lion these two lines work:

brew install libiconv

brew link libiconv


A combination of the suggestions by @DarkDust and @Vee does it for me:

sudo port install libiconv
gem install iconv -- --with-iconv-dir=/opt/local

You can run

port contents libiconv

to that libiconv is now installed under /opt/local/include/ and /opt/local/include/lib. I should also mention that I'm using ruby 1.9.3p286.


Try to install the iconv rvm package and then reinstall ruby 1.9.2:

$ rvm pkg install iconv
$ rvm reinstall 1.9.2 --with-iconv-dir=$rvm_path/usr
