Great you got it working much more easily! @Paul it’s “–with” and not “–width” – might have been a typo? Great you got it working much more easily!

I tried your gem installation command, but the mysql gem I was installing (2.8.1) grumbled at the extra '--width-mysql-config' build flags. Fortunately, since the mysql installation creates a softlink to /usr/local/mysql I was able to omit that and just issue: sudo env ARCHFLAGS="-arch x86_64" gem install mysql and it worked fine.

I finally tracked down the problem. I had an old version of the gem in my local cache (~/.gem/...). I deleted all cache refs to the old version and all was well. May be a bug in gem that it doesn't clean the local cache when gems are uninstalled ?? This helped me get the architectures correct but I still got the ‘undefined method “real_connect” ‘ problem.
