I think our Ruby installation stuff is a bit broken. We have
--with-ruby-sitedir=SITEDIR
install Ruby bindings in SITEDIR (default is same as
ruby's one)
Ruby, at least since 1.8.7, has both sitedir and vendordir. vendordir
is the system installation, typically under /usr, while sitedir is the
local stuff, typically under /usr/local.
I have Debian/wheezy 1.8.7 ruby and it has
sitedir /usr/local/share/ruby/site_ruby
sitelibdir /usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8
sitearchdir /usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/x86_64-linux
vendordir /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby
vendorlibdir /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/1.8
vendorarchdir /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/1.8/x86_64-linux
I have Debian/wheezy 1.9.1/1.9.3 ruby and it has
sitedir /usr/local/share/ruby/site_ruby
sitelibdir /usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.9.1
sitearchdir /usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.9.1/x86_64-linux
vendordir /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby
vendorlibdir /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/1.9.1
vendorarchdir /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/1.9.1/x86_64-linux
Note that libdir is a prefix of sitedir for both vendor and site. That
allows us to generate installation paths when --with-ruby-sitedir is
used:
AC_MSG_CHECKING([where to install Ruby extensions])
AC_CACHE_VAL([svn_cv_ruby_sitedir_archsuffix],[
svn_cv_ruby_sitedir_archsuffix="`echo "$rbconfig_sitearchdir" | \
$SED -e "s,^$rbconfig_sitedir,,"`"
])
SWIG_RB_SITE_ARCH_DIR="${svn_ruby_installdir}${svn_cv_ruby_sitedir_archsuffix}"
AC_MSG_RESULT([$SWIG_RB_SITE_ARCH_DIR])
However that breaks down when libdir is not a prefix of sitedir.
I have Debian/sid 2.1.2 ruby and it has
sitedir /usr/local/lib/site_ruby
sitelibdir /usr/local/lib/site_ruby/2.1.0
sitearchdir /usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/site_ruby
vendordir /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby
vendorlibdir /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/2.1.0
vendorarchdir /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ruby/vendor_ruby/2.1.0
I have Fedora/20 2.0.0 and it has
sitedir /usr/local/share/ruby/site_ruby
sitelibdir /usr/local/share/ruby/site_ruby/
sitearchdir /usr/local/lib64/ruby/site_ruby
vendordir /usr/share/ruby/vendor_ruby
vendorlibdir /usr/share/ruby/vendor_ruby/
vendorarchdir /usr/lib64/ruby/vendor_ruby
On these systems we get the wrong installation directories. If I use
./configure --with-ruby-sitedir=/home/pm/ruby
the 1.8.7 system gives a reasonable looking:
checking where to install Ruby extensions... /home/pm/ruby/1.8/x86_64-linux
while the 2.1.2 system gives a very odd looking:
checking where to install Ruby extensions...
/home/pm/ruby/usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/site_ruby
I'm not sure whether the different layout is due to the more modern Ruby
or the more modern OS.
