Hi, 

I tried installing FFI from the GIT repository - https://github.com/ffi/ffi.git
But when I execute rake gem:install it says [warn] YARD unavailable.
So I install YARD gem and again run rake gem:install, i still get the
below error :

[warn] YARD unavailable
rake aborted!
Don't know how to build task 'gem:install'

(See full trace by running task with --trace)

Any pointers ?

Hi Folks,

I am installing a knife-azure plugin using gem to make API calls to Azure for listing,
creating and deleting instances. But I get too many dependencies error.
One of them was rspec so I installed it, i now get another error message saying 
ffi.h is missing. Here is the error that was thrown on the console -

~]# gem install ffi
Building native extensions.  This could take a while...

.

How can I resolve this ?

Thank you,
