Subject: [sup-talk] utf8 support on Ubuntu Karmic
Date: Mon, 12 Apr 2010 09:08:28 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <o2q3c5cf5261004111608q9ac4dd89v1e8c9cf3bf0ee9b3@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hello,

I have been trying out sup, and rather like it. Unfortunately, it
seems very easy
to crash :-(

First things though, how do I get utf8 support working properly?

[Mon Apr 12 08:52:00 +1000 2010] No 'ncursesw' gem detected. Install
it for wide character support.

How do I install this on a Ubuntu Karmic system?

I tried:

brian@aquitard:~/tree/sup$ sudo gem install ncursesw
Building native extensions.  This could take a while...
ERROR:  Error installing ncursesw:
	ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

/usr/bin/ruby1.8 extconf.rb
extconf.rb:23:in `require': no such file to load -- mkmf (LoadError)
	from extconf.rb:23


Gem files will remain installed in
/var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/ncursesw-1.2.4.1 for inspection.
Results logged to /var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/ncursesw-1.2.4.1/gem_make.out


Thanks
