Mac Rmagick won't install with Xcode 4.2

Question

I just got a new macbook pro and trying to setup my dev environment. I downloaded xcode 4.2 from the app store and installed it, after this i installed homebrew and RVM. ImageMagick, readline, ruby 1.9.3-head all installed perfectly until i ran bundle update which tried to install rmagick.

After a long long time investigating i come down to the conclusion that it can't find libgomp.

The output is from gem install rmagick is:

$ gem install rmagick
Building native extensions.  This could take a while...
ERROR:  Error installing rmagick:
        ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

You have to install development tools first.

Here is my mkmf.log file:

2: 
3: int main() {return 0;}
/* end */

Now i assumed here that something was wrong with xcode i tried several things:

• Reinstall xcode
• Remove imagemagick and reinstalled it including other libraries like jpg, libpng etc
• Installed older version of imagemagick
• Removed .rvm and reinstalled a fresh copy of ruby

I have no clue what's left for me to try, could anyone help to push me in the good direction?

Answer 1

I tried to download and install 4.1 for lion and this didn't even install (without a proper error message). Now a colleague gave me this great link to GCC for Mac which worked like a charm: https://github.com/kennethreitz/osx-gcc-installer

Don't forget to download the v2 if you run on > 10.7.0

Answer 2

I tried your solution (full of hope) but It did not work for me unfortunately. Finally I managed to make it work by reinstalling imagemagick without openmp support (this is the library responsible for lgomp)

using Homebrew:

brew install imagemagick --disable-openmp

then rmagick installed without any problems.

Answer 3

For people who want source installation, you can download the source code repository and issue this command in the imagemagick source code directory.

./configure --disable-openmp

It will work similar to the brew version above but with source code compilation instead.
