Hi Ken,

I'm cc'ing this to tioga-users (perhaps Vincent will notice it and  
give us the real answers!)

Now we wait for Vincent to educate us.  ; - )

In the meantime, what ruby is it?  You might want to install a fresh  
ruby 1.8.6 (see http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/downloads/).

Good luck,
Bill

  I'm curious to know which system that is. You might be missing the
so-called ruby development files. Is there a ruby-devel package or
something in this spirit available for your machine ? (on debian/ubuntu,
that would libruby1.8-devel, but I make sure debian packages are up-to-date)

  What is the output of

locate ruby.h ?

  What puzzles me is that apparently extconf.rb find rbconfig.rb, which
means that development files should be found.

  Is it ruby 1.9 ? If that is the case, currently published versions of
Tioga do not support it. However, the current SVN version does support
it, so might give it a try; see there:

http://pkg-games.alioth.debian.org/tarballs/vegastrike_0.4.3.debian1.orig.tar.gz

  Cheers,

	Vincent

Hi Vincent,

"uname -a" yields:
Linux dumbledore 2.6.9-55.0.12.ELsmp #1 SMP Wed Oct 17 08:15:59 EDT 2007 
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

"cat /etc/redhat-release" yields:
Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS release 4 (Nahant Update 5)

running "up2date-nox ruby-devel" yields (paraphrased):
Package set/dependencies: ruby-devel-1.8.1-7.EL4.8.1.
installing: ruby-devel

Prior to the above up2date, "slocate ruby.h" yielded no hits.  After the 
up2date, "ruby.h " is now buried in "/usr/lib64/ruby/1.8/x86_64-linux-gnu/"

>   Is it ruby 1.9 ? 
No, the installed version of ruby was 1.8.1.

So the upshot of all of this is that I can get tioga to install...kind 
of.  Now pdflatex is having issues finding font cmbx at 72, but 
eitherway, I believe you've addressed my previous problem.  Thanks again 
for your help!!

Best,
Ken
