1.3. Dependencies

The Ruby Software Development Kit has the following dependencies, which you must install manually if you are using gem:

libxml2 for parsing and rendering XML
libcurl for HTTP transfers
C compiler
Required header and library files

Note

You do not need to install the dependency files if you installed the RPM.

Install the dependency files:

# yum install gcc libcurl-devel libxml2-devel ruby-devel

Note

If you are using Fedora or CentOS, use dnf:

# dnf install gcc libcurl-devel libxml2-devel ruby-devel

If you are using Debian or Ubuntu, use apt-get:

# apt-get install gcc libxml2-dev libcurl-dev ruby-dev
