Hi all,
I am getting the following error when running ./configure in the latest gem from svn:
checking whether ln -s works... yes ./configure: line 3662: syntax error near unexpected token
REFERENCEPATH=$GEM_RTE_REFERENCEPATH' ./configure: line 3662:
REFERENCEPATH=$GEM_RTE_REFERENCEPATH'any idea what it means?
no, not really. it's probably some problem with you /bin/sh (which shell are you using).
anyhow, the REFERENCEPATH is not needed anyhow, so you could just get rid of the 2 offending lines in configure.ac (see attached patch), re-run autoconf && ./configure
if this doesn't help, then the problem is probably elsewhere. (just a wild guess: maybe you have to change 'GEM_CHECK_RTE()' to 'GEM_CHECK_RTE')
