I have trouble finding the package for this software. I built and installed from the packages found here, but it's still not working properly with rvm and gem (log is located here). How would you suggest finding a package for this to work properly? 

stanley@ubuntu:~/Github/webdev_class/ruby$ sudo apt-cache search ^openssl
[sudo] password for stanley: 
openssl-blacklist - Blacklists for  OpenSSL RSA keys and tools
openssl-blacklist-extra - Non-default blacklists of OpenSSL RSA keys
libengine-pkcs11-openssl - OpenSSL engine for PKCS#11 modules
libxmlsec1-openssl - Openssl engine for the XML security library
openssl - Secure Socket Layer (SSL) binary and related cryptographic tools

Here is the printout after trying dpkg -l | grep openssl.

I'm trying to integrate RVM with gnome-terminal.

Per default, gnome-terminal does not start bash as a login shell. I enabled run command as a login shell as suggested in this answer about the same topic setting up RVM, but when I do this the .bashrc file is not read.

For example, I create an environment variable in .bashrc and then when I start a new gnome-terminal I cannot read it. I need to run explicitly source .bashrc to read the file.

Is this the expected behavior?

gnome-terminal bash bashrc rvm .profile

We have set up an Ubuntu 12.04 LTS server for RoR. We did successfully install rvm and git. However installation failed with rvm for zlib and ruby 1.9.3. Here is the error log for $rvm install 1.9.3:

checking pthread.h presence... yes
checking for pthread.h... yes
checking for if make is GNU make... ./configure: line 17125: make: command not found

The problem seems to be with GNU Make. Any solutions to fix? Thanks so much.

I don't know if this question belongs here, but I'll take a shot. Hi. I'm running ubuntu 11.10 dual-boot with windows vista on my machine. On Ubuntu, I've installed RVM, rails gem, & PostgreSQL (the postgres server, client, & other packages like libpq5, because I installed it via Software Center).

I'm trying to deploy my app on heroku, but seems like i need to install pg gem. I tried to install it, but got this error instead:

ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

/home/pcr/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.3-p0/bin/ruby extconf.rb checking for pg_config... yes

Using config values from /usr/bin/pg_config

You need to install postgresql-server-dev-X.Y for building a server-side extension or libpq-dev for building a client-side application. You need to install postgresql-server-dev-X.Y for building a server-side extension or libpq-dev for building a client-side application.

checking for libpq-fe.h... * extconf.rb failed *

After searching google & stackoverflow for a while, many people said that libpq-dev has to be installed. I tried, via software center but fail do to unmet dependencies. I tried via apt-get, it said that I need libkrb5-dev and krb5-multidev. I tried sudo apt-get install libpq-dev libkrb5-dev krb5-multidev, and got this:

The following packages have unmet dependencies: krb5-multidev :

Depends: libkrb5-3 (= 1.9.1+dfsg-1ubuntu1) but 1.9.1+dfsg-1ubuntu2.1 is to be installed

Depends: libk5crypto3 (= 1.9.1+dfsg-1ubuntu1) but 1.9.1+dfsg-1ubuntu2.1 is to be installed

Depends: libgssapi-krb5-2 (= 1.9.1+dfsg-1ubuntu1) but 1.9.1+dfsg-1ubuntu2.1 is to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

But I already have libkrb5-3, libk5crypto3, and libgssapi-krb5-2 (all with version 1.9.1+dfsg-1ubuntu2.1) on my system! I think maybe the version needed is 1.9.1+dfsg-1ubuntu1. So, maybe I have to remove the 1.9.1+dfsg-1ubuntu2.1 packages first. Do you think it's safe for me to remove it? I tried to remove one of them, but software center warns me that it will also remove postgres, openssl-client, smbclient, cups, and many other packages.

What should I do to resolve this? And, is pg gem really necessary to be installed on my local machine to create rails app with postgres as the dbms? Is there a way to "hand over" the responsibility to include pg gem to heroku instead?
