I've problem with gbarcode gem which has dependency gnu-barcode c application.
When trying to say gem install gbarcode it says:
Building native extensions. This could take a while...
ERROR: Error installing gbarcode-linux:

I've tried to install gnu-barcode application from ubuntu software center, apt-get and directly from source http://www.gnu.org/software/barcode/ and the response is always the same.
How should I install gnu barcode so that it's working with the gem.
And yes this project is quite heavy dependent on that gem so replacing it would be really painful to all parties.
After this command sudo gem install cocoapods I got error below.
I think it is connected to the wrong path for Xcode 5. When I installed it I save it on Desktop but them moved it to the Application folder. I use Xcode 4.6.3 as well as Xcode 5. How can I change path to solve this issue. Command line tools are installed on both XCodes.

I'm getting a make error:

There has been an error while running make. Halting the installation.
This is the same for p180. I have installed readline and everything already. I'm trying to install 1.9.3, with similar errors. I've tried installing with clang and readline flags, nothing works.
It appears that this is my main error:
ld: in /usr/local/lib/libxslt.1.dylib, file was built for unsupported file format which

Are you using OSX??
You can try use:
rvm install ruby-1.9.2-p320 --with-gcc=clang
Or:
CC=/usr/local/bin/gcc-4.2 rvm install ruby-1.9.2-p320
Got a big problem installing rb-appscript.
I already installed the latest Version of xCode & I'm running Lion.
Hope you can help me, thanks a lot!

Seems like something is wrong with your Ruby install. It complains about a wrong architecture here

Be sure your ruby is installed right. For a super-easy Ruby installation, I would recommend the Ruby Version Manager -> https://rvm.io
Running "rvm install 1.8.7-p302" provides the following feedback:

This is the second attempt at installing it; the first time the patch installed fine, but Ruby itself failed running make. I have recently installed Ruby 1.9.3-p0 without problem.

If you need any more info, let me know.
EDIT: I performed the following steps after reading this thread: make error when installing `ruby-1.8.7-p334` with `rvm` on Snow Leopard
rvm pkg install readline
rvm remove 1.8.7
rvm cleanup all
rvm install ruby-1.8.7-p302
This successfully installed the patch, indicating it is installed first time so any subsequent errors can be ignored. It did still error when compiling Ruby. As the make log file exceeds this post's character count capacity, you can view the contents of the second makefile here: http://pastebin.com/MTZjXBdF
Did not work with the latest release. However could get it to work by forcing it to use the rvm installed readline.
rvm install 1.8.7 -C –with-readline-dir=$rvm_path/usr
So complete steps are:
rvm pkg install readline
rvm remove 1.8.7
rvm cleanup all
rvm install 1.8.7 -C –with-readline-dir=$rvm_path/usr
Thanks to Andrew at http://anlek.com/2011/01/rvm-install-1-8-7-p330-fails/ for the pointer.
I just tested it with both linux and OSX, it seems to be fixed already:
rvm get head
rvm install 1.8.7-p302 --autolibs=3
Also consider upgrading to ruby-2.0.0 - the 1.8 tree will be no more maintained in few months.
