Subject: [Rbrainz-users] Problems building mb-discid with libdiscid
	installed through Homebrew
Message-ID: <EF360419-67C3-46BA-A5CA-11BC2DB7A5E1@reprocessed.org>

Hey guys,

The extconf.rb in mb-discid doesn't find libdiscid (on Mac OS X) without extra command-line args if you've installed libdiscid in somewhere like /usr/local/, for example through the Homebrew packaging system (or in /opt/local/ through Macports).

This is a big problem if you're using Bundler to manage gems for a project.

I've forked mb-discid and fixed it by making extconf.rb more aware of common library locations (rather, I reused some of the code from Nokogiri's extconf.rb). I opened http://rubyforge.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=29303&group_id=3677&atid=14225 on the tracker (and attached a patch to that).

Matt
