Note: I gave up on this and decided to try Rails 6 and Webpacker rather than fighting this fight. Moving on to other fights.
An error occurred while installing ffi (1.13.1), and Bundler cannot continue. I know this a recurring problem and I've run into it before with nokogiri, but can't seem to find the solution this time. I have read and tried many suggestions based on searching SO and what shows up as similar questions.
Partial Gemfile:
source 'https://rubygems.org'
git_source(:github) do |repo_name|
repo_name = "#{repo_name}/#{repo_name}" unless repo_name.include?("/")
"https://github.com/#{repo_name}.git"
end
ruby '2.7.0'
gem 'rails', '~> 5.2.0'
gem 'pg' , '~> 0.18'
gem 'puma'
gem 'bootstrap', '~> 4'
Terminal (edited slightly), starting at responding to the error:
➜ gem install ffi -v '1.13.1' --source 'https://rubygems.org/'

Make sure that `gem install ffi -v '1.13.1' --source 'https://rubygems.org/'` succeeds before bundling.
In Gemfile:
ffi
Some of the things I've tried based on SO posts on this and similar problems
Removed Gemfile.lock and still bundle install failed
Tried ruby-install ruby 2.7.0 just in case. I'm using chruby and still bundle install failed
sudo xcodebuild -license and still bundle install failed
Tried commenting out source github and still bundle install failed
Tried gem install ffi and still bundle install failed
I have another app that uses similar gems but I had updated it to Rails 6, but it was at ruby-2.6.6, so tried changing to ruby-2.6.6 in terminal and Gemfile, ran bundle install and got the same kind of failure but for nokogiri.
I got trapped in this while trying to make changes on a two-year old app and then couldn't push to heroku.
I think I get that this a dependency issue, but am lost beyond that. Thanks for any suggestions.
Gemfile.lock with everything that depends on ffi removed (bootstrap) so bundle update could run without errors.

I found this answer (from https://stackoverflow.com/a/63267668/592820) helpful:
brew upgrade libffi
export LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/opt/libffi/lib"
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/usr/local/opt/libffi/lib/pkgconfig"
bundle install
Was getting this error and resolved by following steps in:
gem install ffi -- --disable-system-libffi
bundle install
Edit: I had to install xcode in appstore as well. ruby version 2.6.5, rails 6.
