=== Snow Leopard, Ruby and MySQL
I was finally able to get the mysql 2.8.1 gem after a snow leopard upgrade. After trying many different builds, 64 vs. 32, etc, I ended up:
- removing the existing mysql bundle
$ sudo rm /Library/Ruby/Site/1.8/universal-darwin10.0/mysql.bundle
- installing 64-bit mysql 5.0 from the .dmg download
- building the gem with this command:
$ sudo env ARCHFLAGS="-arch x86_64" gem install mysql -- --with-mysql-config=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config
