How to install therubyracer gem on 10.10 Yosemite?

Question

I don\'t manage to install therubyracer gem on Yosemite 10.10.

Here is the log:

11:53  $ gem install libv8 -v \'3.16.14.3\' -- --with-system-v8

They have corrected this issue in the most recent version of libv8. See: https://github.com/cowboyd/libv8/issues/123

You should install from the github repo, in rails I added a line to my gemfile like this gem "libv8", git: "git://github.com/cowboyd/libv8.git", submodules: true

EDIT:

This apparently only solves some of the problem. I installed the new version of libv8, but now the rubyracer is still looking for the other one I think? Still looking into it.
