Error while bundle install for idn-ruby

I have twitter-text gem in my application.

When I do a bundle install I am getting the below error.

Need to solve it on high priority.

I also went to the github page https://github.com/twitter/twitter-text/issues/225

but could not find a solution there.

I tried to install directly using the line below but got the same error.

gem install idn-ruby -v '0.1.0'

Error

  Please install the GNU IDN library or alternatively specify at least one

        or

Could not create Makefile due to some reason, probably lack of necessary

To see why this extension failed to compile, please check the mkmf.log which can be found here:

extconf failed, exit code 1

Gem files will remain installed in /home/inuscg/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.3.0@idt-two/gems/idn-ruby-0.1.0 for inspection.
Results logged to /home/inuscg/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.3.0@idt-two/extensions/x86_64-linux/2.3.0/idn-ruby-0.1.0/gem_make.out

An error occurred while installing idn-ruby (0.1.0), and Bundler cannot continue.
Make sure that `gem install idn-ruby -v '0.1.0'` succeeds before bundling.

In Gemfile:
  twitter-text was resolved to 2.1.0, which depends on
    idn-ruby

Thank you in advance

As per the error show in logs ERROR: could not find idn library!. idn library is required to install twitter text. Try to install that first and then install the gem. Try with

sudo apt-get install libldap2-dev
sudo apt-get install libidn11-dev

Hope this solves your problem.

For mac:

brew install libidn
