Make errors while installing byebug gem

Question

I am trying to install byebug and it keeps giving me this error:

make: *** No rule to make target `/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX11.1.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/2.6/usr/include/ruby-2.6.0/universal-darwin19/ruby/config.h', needed by `breakpoint.o'.  Stop.

I tried to reinstall ruby and it did not work.

Any help appreciated.

Maybe you could try installing `rvm` or `rbenv` instead of using your system's ruby. — Alter Lagos, Dec 27 '20 at 21:39

I had the same error!

I just created a symbolic link:

cd /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX11.1.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/2.6/usr/include/ruby-2.6.0
ln -sf universal-darwin21 universal-darwin19

Now it is working fine.

Check which universal-darwin you have to point correctly.

Thank you, this worked for me as well! I had to do ```bash sudo ln -s universal-darwin22 universal-darwin21 ``` on my system. – Andreas Piening Mar 11 '23 at 15:47
