Installing Teambox on Ubuntu. Failing on Gherkin 2.3.3 installation

Question

I haven't found Teambox's support forum so I'm asking here. Note that I am completely new to Linux and its commandline syntax so please understand. :)

Anyway, I followed this guide and managed to install all the prerequisites needed. After cloning the Git repository, I invoked the command:

bundle install

The script proceeded to install different apps but it stopped with a GCC compile error when installing Gherkin 2.3.3.

Is there any way to tell the "bundle" to "install" the latest gherkin instead of 2.3.3?

Answer 1

You need to tell Bundle to pass the "ignore warning as error" parameter to the GEM. To do this, execute the following command before calling bundle install:

bundle config build.gherkin --with-cflags=-w

If that won't work, try this:

bundle config gherkin --with-cflags=-w

Reading this two SO entries helped me solve the problem:

How can I pass a parameter for gem installation when I run bundle install?
