LibYAML on Smartos

[davefinster]

It appears that the default installation that RVM does where it downloads a copy of libYAML does not properly link to libYAML. I discovered this when I went to install some gems and RubyGems complained about no libYAML.

There is a libYAML package in the SmartOS package repo which I installed and then re-installed ruby using:

rvm install 1.9.3 --patch cflags.patch --with-readline-dir=/opt/local --with-yaml-dir=/opt/local

While the /opt/local inclusion should be resolved with #1208 (I'm using master so shouldn't that fix be included?), it may be best to either add libYAML to the list of SmartOS requirements or determine why the downloaded version of libYAML isn't being selected.

should be fixed with a number of other fixes already applied on master, try:

rvm get head
rvm refresh
rvm reinstall 1.9.3

assuming it is fixed as there was no response in 2 weeks, please let me know if there are still problems and I will reopen
