gem eventmachine fatal error: 'openssl/ssl.h' file not found

Question

Just installed El Capitan and can\'t install gem eventmachine 1.0.7. openssl is at 1.0.2a-1. Tried to use --with-ss

Answer 1

This solved the problem for me:

PKG_CONFIG_PATH="$(brew --prefix openssl)/lib/pkgconfig" gem install eventmachine -v "1.0.8"
