I've tried others solutions, but none worked.
Anyone knows why i'm getting this error ?
Thx
You need to install development headers for ruby 2.5, you don't have a development environment installed:
sudo apt-get install ruby2.5-dev
May also be called -devel depending on your packaging system.

Any tips how to fix this in Windows?
Thank you!
Not sure how it was fixed but I ran gem update and psych was updated to 5.0.2 without an error.
I had a similar problem on Mac running OSX 13.2. Bundle install failed because it couldn't find yaml.h.
Since I was on Mac and running Homebrew, I did a
brew install libyaml
and then re-ran bundle install. It worked correctly.
You need to install libyaml via pacman -S mingw-w64-ucrt-x86_64-libyamlin the command prompt with ruby
I have been trying to run gem install listen and I saw this error below.

"can't find header files for ruby" explains the issue best. Make sure to install Ruby developer libraries.
Depending on your OS and package manager, try
sudo apt-get install ruby-dev
or
sudo yum install ruby-dev
or
sudo apk add ruby-dev
or
xcode-select --install
Also, please check out Error while installing json gem 'mkmf.rb can't find header files for ruby' and similar proposed solutions.

The system is missing ruby dev files. If you are using Debian
sudo apt-get install ruby-dev
should do the work.
Install ruby-dev using your package managers. (package name may differ across different linux distros)

You have to install the Ruby DevKit. Depending on your installation of Ruby, you have to select the correct way to install it.

I am still a newb at terminal commands, so I have no idea what is going on. I tried reinstalling and updating ruby and it still wont work. Any idea what could be going on and how to fix it?
MANY THANKS!
Install Ruby Version Manager first:
$ ruby install rvm
After installing rvm, I was able to install breakpoint and sigularity (and susy!)
Hope that helps!
