I'm currently running Ruby 1.9.2p0 on a Windows XP 32-bit machine. Ever since we've upgraded to Ruby 1.9, I cannot get any form of debugging to work at all. I've been told that you need the new ruby-debug19 gem in order to get things running. Problem is, my company's proxy prevents the gem dependency manager from connecting external repositories. That's ok, I'll just download the gem myself and install it locally. The results:
ERROR: Error installing ruby-debug19-0.11.6.gem:
ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

Perhaps I'm making unreasonable assumptions as I am fairly new to Ruby but it does look like the installation script is attempting to connect an external repository to grab something. If so, this is absurd, why would I locally install a gem if I was able to do so with the manager automatically? Does anybody know a way that I can install a debugger in a purely local, offline fashion? I appreciate any help.
