Mac OS X Mavericks, rbenv, and ruby-build “Missing the OpenSSL lib?”

Posted: September 19, 2014 | Author: | Filed under: daily learning | Tags: , , , , | Leave a comment »

openssl version: 1.0.1i, rbenv version: 0.4.0, ruby-build as plugin in the ~/.rbenv/plugins directory.

The version of openssl on a Mavericks machine got out of sync with rbenv and ruby-build for some reason. For every attempt at installing a ruby version through rbenv attempted, we got the following message:

“The Ruby openssl extension was not compiled. Missing the OpenSSL lib?”

Tried every permutation of trying to fix one thing at a time, but ultimately ended up doing the following:

~/.rbenv/plugins/ruby-build directory
brew unlink openssl rbenv ruby-build
brew uninstall openssl rbenv ruby-build
brew update
brew install openssl
brew link openssl --force
brew install rbenv
eval "$(rbenv init -)"
brew install ruby-build

Then we were able to install whatever ruby version we wanted.

I’m sure some of the above process was overkill and unnecessary, but the steps in total did the job.

Excel for Mac Breaks Up Spreadsheets Into Pages

Posted: September 17, 2014 | Author: | Filed under: daily learning | Tags: , | Leave a comment »

Excel for Mac seems to use “Page Layout” view by default. This can be switched to the more sane Normal view by selecting View -> Normal from the menu.

You can change the default view in Excel -> Preferences -> View -> Preferred view for new sheets.

Still trying to figure out if there is a way to force all document openings to this setting as well.

powerline vim, NameError, invalid expression error on the latest update.

Posted: September 3, 2014 | Author: | Filed under: daily learning | Tags: | Leave a comment »

I have vim with pathogen and on the latest update of the powerline.vim, everything broke.

It turns out that my old default config files are incompatible with the new version of powerline. See GitHub issue.

When I ran vim with --cmd 'let g:powerline_config_overrides={"common":{"log_file":"/tmp/powerline.log"}}' as suggested, a bunch of config mapping errors showed up:

The quickest solution is to take the new default config files and dump them in your ~/.config/powerline directory.
