Cannot install RMagick 2.15.4 - ruby

I'm trying to install RMagick 2.15.4 on RHEL 6.7 using Ruby 2.0.0 and ImageMagick 7.0.2.
I've installed ImageMagick7, ImageMagick7-c++, ImageMagick7-c++-devel, ImageMagick7-devel, ImageMagick7-libs packages, made a symlinks:
ln -s /usr/include/ImageMagick-7/MagickCore/ /usr/include/ImageMagick-7/magick
ln -s /usr/include/ImageMagick-7/MagickWand/ /usr/include/ImageMagick-7/wand
And launched install:
C_INCLUDE_PATH=/usr/include/ImageMagick-7/ gem install rmagick
But got this errors:

I checked all developer dependencies on https://rubygems.org/gems/rmagick/versions/2.15.4, and they was satisfied.
How to fix this?
Thanks.

GCC/G++ Errors Mac OS X Yosemite

since some weeks, I'm working with a new Mac which works with OS X Yosemite (Version 10.10.3). I figured out a lot of trouble installing programs from source, why I already changed the compiler to, e.g., gcc 4.2, 4.7, and 4.9. Furthermore, I "removed" the connection to clang, but also this produces still errors during compiling. However, doing the same on a Mac OS X machine version 10.7.5 works fine. There, gcc version 4.2.1 is running.
Here's an example error message, I get typing make in the command line:

I found a solution. The problem was, as I already feared, the compiler.
I installed a relatively new version (gcc 4.9), set this version as active and added the path in ~/.bash_profile (that was the most important step). Furthermore, I adopted the makefile. Opening a new terminal and typing "make" runs without errors.

Ruby DevKit compile issues

My compass had broken

make: *** [rdiscount.o] Error 1
I've tried uninstalling Ruby and removing the C:/Ruby193 directory, but the same errors still occurs.
I was hoping that I could just gem install compass and be on my way, but I still get the same error when I run compass compile.
Do you know how to fix this?
Looks like there is an issue with the latest version of rdiscount: https://github.com/rtomayko/rdiscount/issues/74
Try installing the previously tagged version:
gem install rdiscount -v=1.6.8 --platform=ruby

Ruby save Excel as CSV

I am trying to go through each .xls file in a directory and save a .csv for each file. I am working with the 'roo' gem and am seeing some errors. Totally open to other approaches, I just need to keep this in Ruby without moving to Ruby on Rails. I am running Ruby 1.9.2 and executing in terminal on a Mac.
Code so far:
#! /usr/bin/ruby
require 'roo'
# change excel files to csv
begin
Dir["/tmp/*.xls"].each do |file|
file_path = "#{file}"
file_basename = File.basename(file, ".xls")
xls = Excel.new(file_path)
xls.to_csv = ("/tmp/#{file_basename}.csv")
end
end
And here is the error I get: (line numbers are not the same as example, line 27 is begin statement)

Add this: require 'iconv' before require 'roo'. I found this solution here, and i got there using this query on google: roo/excel.rb:284. An example here! Notice about the = in this line: xls.to_csv = ("/tmp/#{file_basename}.csv") that should not be there.
I decided to post an answer to try and explain this situation for anyone else that arrives here from Google.
As David points out, to fix this error...
uninitialized constant Excel::Iconv
...you'll have to require "iconv":
require "iconv"
require "roo"
This is because the Roo gem calls Iconv.new in its internal Excel class but Roo forgot to require "iconv" itself, so you're forced to do it. It's a bug. It's no different than calling Set.new without require "set"
Iconv is part of Ruby 1.8 and 1.9's standard library. You don't install it. It's already there.
However, it's worth pointing out that Iconv is deprecated in Ruby 1.9 and removed in Ruby 2.0.

I found the following suggestions helpful:
1. add the following parameter to configure:
--with-unixodbc=no
if you still get errors, try setting LDFLAGS to '-arch i386'

Can anyone help? I'm totally lost here…
That article i 2.5 years old. I wouldn't recommend following it. If you still wants to then you could try to rvm install Ruby 1.8.7. I've never heard of any compability issues between 1.8.6 and 1.8.7.
I would instead recommend that you follow Setting up a Rails Development System on Mac OSX Snow Leopard and from there the regular Getting Started with Rails.
