Question

I’m trying to install Ruby 1.9.2 on Snow Leopard and the infamous problem arose. I’m saying famous because I found lot of similar problems on the web, but no solution worked for me yet.

Upon trying to install from RVM or compiling directly, I get lot of warnings like this

tcltklib.c:8143: warning: implicit conversion shortens 64-bit value into a 32-bit value

and at the end this error

/usr/local/lib/libsqlite3.dylib, file was built for unsupported file format which is not the architecture being linked (x86_64) for architecture x86_64
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

I tried setting the ARCHFLAGS=”-arch x86_64″ in the .bash_profile file, and reinstalling sqlite3.

Any idea?

Answer 1

Try installing sqlite3 as 64-bit as mentioned here:
