Hello sorry @colin .i am a new one to this forum as well as ruby so if any mistake made by me then i am sorry. well the output of $ apt-cache policy gcc is gcc: Installed: 4:4.8.2-1ubuntu6 Candidate: 4:4.8.2-1ubuntu6 Version table: *** 4:4.8.2-1ubuntu6 0 500 http://in.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
Though @coli u had told me to try out sudo apt-get install libxslt1-dev libxml2-dev command ,its working fine showing that libxslt1-dev is already the newest version. libxml2-dev is already the newest version. 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 490 not upgraded. And after it i try to install rails by gems install rails but the same error again comes up. i had try to install nokogiri by trying out sudo gem install nokogiri -v '1.6.6.2' -- --use-system-libraries --with-xml2-include=/usr/include/libxml2 --with-xml2-lib=/usr/lib command & it was working fine. So help me guys..
