Summary: Missing rb_hash_foreach
Description:
Configure scripts check if rb_hash_foreach function exists
using the following command. if it does not exist, it is assumed the
release level is prior to 1.8.2.
$ /opt/csw/bin/ruby --version
ruby 1.8.7 (2008-08-11 patchlevel 72) [sparc-solaris2.8]
$ /opt/csw/bin/ruby -r mkmf -e 'have_func("rb_hash_foreach")'
checking for rb_hash_foreach()... no

----------------------------------------------------------------------
The have_func feature of mkmf is a header test. The function is defined in
/opt/csw/lib/ruby/1.8/$arch-solaris2.8/intern.h. I'll determine why the
test is failing to find this function.
Confirmed on solaris 10 x86 (other platforms not tested yet).

have_func builds a small c extension that requires the rb_hash_foreach
symbol. This is linked against ruby-static. The ruby-static library isn't
included with the package. I'll resolve this asap.

Modified the GAR build to allow libruby-static.a to be bundled. Have
verified the problem is resolved after including this file. I'll have
packages in testing/ by days end.

I have tested it and ruby itself works fine.
however, the dependency list is wrong or there is still a bug ;)
I found that I actually needed the gcc binary itself and not just the
libraries
for mkmf...have_func work correctly
The output of mkmf.log is below.
without gcc it rb_hash_foreach returns no and fails with the shell command
{path to gcc}/gcc not found.
$ cat mkmf.log
have_func: checking for rb_hash_foreach()... -------------------- yes

Looking at how Debian package ruby, they've split out a ruby-dev package
which includes the headers, mkmf module and libruby stuff. I think that
would be a better solution for us too, thus the gcc dependency would only
affect people that want to build native extensions. Will try to get to
this today.

Well, that's also a side issue to, "doing dev work with ruby, requires
remembering to link in the gcc4 runtime lib, because it was compiled with
gcc".
A reminder that if there is a way to compile ruby with SUN compilers, this
issue goes away.
Another reminder, that if there is any equivalent to "pkg-config" for
ruby, with some "ruby.pc" like file... that file should mention required
link args of
-R/opt/csw/gcc4/lib -L/opt/csw/gcc4/lib -l[whatever]

This issue should be fixed by the updated packages that will hit mirrors
shortly.
