Ruby 1.8.0 rpm?

H

Hal Fulton

I want to install on a box where I don't have root access.

For some reason, it has gcc but no yacc. :0

Is there a 1.8 rpm somewhere? That would simplify my life a little.

I've seen preview4 but nothing later.

Thanks,
Hal

Are you sure yacc is needed to build?
In my tarball (582a65e52598a4a1e9fce523e16e67d6 ruby-1.8.0.tar.gz),
the parser is in parse.c (pre-generated).

I try to avoid the details. I think it was the stable snapshot
that I got -- don't know sum.

What happened to me was it crashed after building a few files.
It ends with:

gcc -g -O2 -I. -I. -c pack.c
yacc parse.y
make: yacc: Command not found
make: *** [parse.c] Error 127

That's all I know.
