Unable to install MySQL on Mac OS X

Question

I\'m having the exact issue as described in this question: MYSQL Installation Troubles. Unfortunately none of the answers helped me (and it\'s closed).

I try to learn

Answer 1

I have run into issues with the MySQL gem myself and these are the only 2 links I actually bookmarked, so one of should have actually worked for me. Thought I'd share.

1. http://wonko.com/post/how-to-install-the-mysqlruby-gem-on-mac-os-x-leopard
2. http://rapd.wordpress.com/2007/05/17/battle-against-ror-gem-install-mysql/

The second one is kind of old, so not sure if it still applies.
