An error occured while installing debugger-linecache (1.1.1), and Bundler cannot continue.
Make sure that `gem install debugger-linecache -v '1.1.1'` succeeds before bundling.

If i type ruby-v in the terminal I get ruby 1.9.2p0 (2010-08-18 revision 29036) [x86_64-linux]

If I do gem install debugger-linecache I still get the same error. How this can be solved. Please help??


Solution

  • I had a very similar error, but on ruby 1.9.3. Running:

    gem install debugger-linecache -v '1.1.2' -- --with-ruby-include=$rvm_path/src/ruby-1.9.3-p286/
    

    Got it working for me. Credit to this answer.
