  Ooops... We will need debugging information. Could you run

~ gdb --args =ruby =tioga

  You should get a prompt there. Send us the output of the command bt
in that prompt (along with the rest).

  Could you try replacing

# define INTERN __private_extern__

  by

# define INTERN __attribute__ ((visibility ("hidden")))

  in the split/namespace.h file and recompile ? (I'm afraid I don't
really know how to do it with Rubygems -- I could provide you with a
modified .gem file if you prefer).

  Cheers,

      Vincent, who thought that these problems had definitely gone...

When I run ruby extconf.rb I get the following message:

You lack the ieee754.h header file, which might mean lower reliability

Question: Where can I get the ieee754.h header file? Is there a package

Chas -- I recall someone asking the same question a couple months ago,
and it seemed like not having ieee754.h would be okay as far as
installation is concerned.  (If you really need to know where
ieee754.h is for Leopard, then someone using Mac needs to help
here....  On Debian Linux it's )

  The ieee754.h file is really not important at all. The only case
where it would matter is if you are storing Dvectors using marshal or
PStore and you want to make sure the resulting files can be carried
across different architectures. I'm not an expert in these kind of
things, so the ieee754.h file found in Debian seemed to provide a
decent solution (much more compact than Ruby's native way of
marshalling doubles). You can ignore this completely.

      Vincent

Subject: [Tioga-users] pdflatex
Message-ID: <47C6175D.7000701@munat.com>

I followed, I think, the instructions for installing pdftex and Tioga on 
my MacBook Pro running Leopard. I've successfully installed both on 
Fedora Core 7 and Fedora Core 8. But when I try to install Tioga on the 
Mac, I get:

./usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/Dobjects/Dvector_extras.rb:28: 
command not found: pdflatex -interaction nonstopmode Icon_Test.tex

and there is no Icon_Test.pdf file in tests.

A 'which pdflatex' returns nothing, and I cannot find any file by that name.

Did I screw something up? What's going on here? Any help appreciated.

Hi Charles,

I wonder if you need to install TeX on your MacBook.
Does "which tex" produce anything?

You might try installing TeX from http://www.tug.org/mactex/.

Good luck!

Hi Chris,

Thanks for your interest in Tioga.  I'm forwarding your question to  
the tioga-users mailing list because other folks will be interested  
too.  And even more importantly, Vincent Fourmond will now see the  
message and provide us with an answer!  ; - )

Cheers,

 [ these warnings are normal for ./HOME_INSTALL, just some old make
limitation (or my limitation, I'm unsure now) ]

  Unless I am very much mistaken here, you have a broken rbconfig.rb
file (the file where Ruby stores its various compilation options).
Please find it (it should be something like
/usr/(local?)/lib/ruby/1.8/x86_64-linux/rbconfig.rb), and edit the
line containing

CONFIG["CFLAGS"] = "something"

  to add -fPIC (see http://tioga.rubyforge.org/FAQ.html, under
Compile-time relocations errors, it probably is the same problem). For
the record, the -fPIC compiler option forces the compiler to produce
code suitable for dynamic linking (necessary for ruby extensions).

  I'm unfamiliar with the way TeX Live presents itself on the
installation CD, but you definitely don't need the full TeX Live
distribution to run Tioga. For information, the Debian package needed
is texlive-latex-base, maybe that will help you finding what you need
there.

  Please tell us if that can get you any further !

  Cheers,

      Vincent

I don't know about texlive (the newer version of teTex), but tetex is 
available in yum:

yum search tetex

I have tioga running just fine on Fedora Core 8 (and 7) with tetex.
