Error installing gem "mysql" in Ruby 1.9.1

[Iñaki Baz Castillo]

Hi, trying to install gem "mysql" in Ruby 1.9.1 I get an error:

error: =E2=80=98struct RString=E2=80=99 has no member named =E2=80=98ptr=
=E2=80=99

This is due to RString changes from Ruby 1.8 (now in 1.9.1 RSTRING_PTR(arg)=
=20
must be used instead of RSTRING(arg)->ptr).

What can I do to get mysql working in Ruby 1.9.1? where can I get an update=
d=20
MySQL driver?

Thanks a lot.
