Compiling under cygwin - make test fails

[Anthony Fairchild]

Hello everyone!

I'm trying to compile ruby 1.8.2 under Cygwin. ./configure and make
execute without errors. make test is failing with the following error:

$ make test
/ruby: No such file or directory -- and (LoadError)
test failed
make: *** [test] Error 1

Make install seems to work as well.

I'm having another problem when installing rubygems 0.8.10 which may or
may not be related. When I run setup.rb I get this error:

$ ruby setup.rb
.... stuff cut here for brevity
install version.rb /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems
<--- lib/rubygems
<--- lib

As of RubyGems 0.8.0, library stubs are no longer needed.
Searching $LOAD_PATH for stubs to optionally delete (may take a while)...
...done.
No library stubs found.

/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:18:in
`require__':
No such file to load -- zlib (LoadError)
from
/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:18:in

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Try latest snapshort or compile under a directory which doesn't
contain spaces.

contain spaces.

Spaces were causing the problem. Thanks for the quick response!
