Can't install ruby-debug-base19x gem

Question

When I try to install ruby-debug-base19x gem for debug my application using the RubyMine IDE I received the below error message, can anybody help me?

I\'m using Mac

@gamov's solution worked for me, just let RubyMine install all the gems needed for the debugging.

If you are installing all the gems on your own, it is important to ensure that the versions are correct.

Anyway, here is the list of gems that were really needed for RubyMine to Debug my code:

gem list

• bigdecimal (1.1.0)
• debugger-ruby_core_source (1.2.3)
• io-console (0.3)
• json (1.5.5)
• minitest 2.5.1)
• rake (0.9.2.2)
• rdoc (3.9.5)
• ruby-debug-base19x (0.11.30.pre12)
• ruby-debug-ide 0.4.17)

Hope this helps and hope more people would not have to resort to the old ways that we had been doing in the past.

Please ensure that you install the DevKit before trying to debug using RubyMine. You should be able to get the DevKit from the ruby installer page (Note: different DevKit versions are available for different ruby versions) Extract the DevKit Zip file and do the following in the directory that you had extracted the DevKit to: 'Ruby dk.rb init' 'Ruby dk.rb install'
