rb-rubygems 1.1.1_0 fails on Staging phase

[lsproc@…]

The port file for rb-rubygems fails to install on my system (Leopard, Xcode Tools from Leopard DVD). This is the error encountered:

./lib/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in `gem_original_require': no such file to load -- socket (LoadError)

Assigning to Paul since there seem to be issues with ruby's socket lib being built. See ​this ML post.

In the meantime, is there a way to install a previous patch, and easily upgrade later?

Same problem encountered with Tiger on a Macbook Pro 2.2GHz, latest MacPorts.

I got this problem also. I checkout previous Portfile for ruby 1.8.6-p111 and it still meets the same problem, and there's no many difference between p111 and p114's Portfile. I find another ticket #15177 that "When autoconf 2.62 is used, ruby doesn't build all the appropriate standard libraries. such as socket" . I uninstall autoconf and install ruby with system's autoconf, both 1.8.6-p111 and 1.8.6-p114 works fine. So it's autoconf's problem not ruby's. Hope this can help others.

deactivating autoconf cleaned up the problems for me (OS X 10.5.2), so this is probably a dupe of #15177

[pguyot (Paul Guyot)]

Definitely a dup of #15177.
