Question

I’m trying to build 32bit/64bit version of ruby with rvm with sudo rvm install 1.9.3 --universal command.

It failed, and the log file is as follows:

linking shared-object tcltklib.bundle
ld: in /usr/local/lib/libxml2.2.dylib, file was built for unsupported file format which is not the architecture being linked (i386) for architecture i386
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
make[2]: *** [../../.ext/universal-darwin11.4.0/tcltklib.bundle] Error 1
make[1]: *** [ext/tk/all] Error 2
make: *** [build-ext] Error 2

The message says libxml is built with 64bit, but tcltk that uses it is 32bit.
What might be wrong? How to solve this issue?

Answer 1

have you tried using this flags --without-tk --without-tcl … ofcourse if you do not need tk.

other solution would be to recompile all your libraries with –universal too, but this might bet tedious work.
