Strange Error installing

[arjunmenon]

I have Ruby 2.2.3 on an Elementary OS freya machine. Glade version 3.18.3

Tried installing Visual Ruby following the download guidelines.

First got this error
Typelib file for namespace 'GtkSource' (any version) not found (GLib::Error)

Then installed gtksourceview2, now getting this error

/home/arjun/.rbenv/versions/2.2.3/lib/ruby/gems/2.2.0/gems/gobject-introspection-3.0.9/lib/gobject-introspection.rb:34:in `<top (required)>': uninitialized constant Pathname (NameError)

    from /home/arjun/.rbenv/versions/2.2.3/bin/vr:23:in `<main>'

Anyway to fix this?
Have already done this sudo apt-get install libgtk-3-dev after installing Glade.

Hi:

Sorry for delay. I wasn't aware that it was here.

You will need to use gtksourceview3. It is a gem. So you use:

gem install gtksourceview3

It should have installed automatically with visualruby. Try that, and let me know.

Best,
Eric

I noticed that the gtk3 gem has been updated recently. This caused some warnings because they depricated Gtk::Pixbuf. I updated visualruby to the new namespace, eliminating the warnings. So, it might be a good idea to remove all your gems and try installing it again.

[arjunmenon]

Removed and reinstalled
gtk3
visualruby

This time got a splash image but that was it.
This is the error

Hey
Did some search, found this as the solution - sudo apt-get install gir1.2-gtksource-3.0
Thanks.

[Beagle123]

Thanks for the info. I don't understand why that would be needed. It works fine on my machine without having to install gir1.2-gtksource-3.0. In fact, I think the gtksourceview3 gem should automatically install whatever it needs. I hope this isn't an issue for new installs.

Best,
Eric

[arjunmenon]

Maybe you can add a note on the wiki/website about this, like
troubleshooting.

I have the same error after installing visual ruby @Beagle123 can you please help me out? I am using mac os sierra and I tries all the solutions mentioned in this thread

[arjunmenon]

Hey @JunaidSarfraz
I am not using macos, so can't be sure what you are missing. Can you post the error? As @Beagle123 mentioned, if there is any dependency missing, it would automatically install it. But for my system that wasn't the case. Manually installing the libs did it for me.

[JunaidSarfraz]

@Beagle123 I resolved it manually installing libs worked for me too, Thanks for response

[undecided]

Just to confirm, had this exact issue, MacOS Sierra, ruby 2.3.1 via rbenv. gem install gtksourceview3 fixed it. Also, needed to do brew install glade - partly so that I could use glade, but also all the icons were broken (I'm assuming adwaita-icon-theme supplied them, which were a glade dependency)
