'Ruby: BUILD FAILED (macOS 11.2 using ruby-build 20210119) Mac Big Sur

I looked at this Ruby installation (2.2.2) fails in macOS Big Sur

My macOS is Big Sur and the version I have is 11.2 and it was the closest I could find to the issue I'm having with my OS, I followed what I could by trying

CFLAGS="-Wno-error=implicit-function-declaration" rbenv install 2.5.3

and also

RUBY_CFLAGS=-DUSE_FFI_CLOSURE_ALLOC rbenv install 2.5.3

This is the output in my Terminal:

I get this error for both commands mentioned above and both give this same output. The version of Ruby also doesn't seem to matter, I've tried 3.0.0 as well and get the same results.

Additionally this is the original output when I try to just install ruby with rbenv install

xcode-select version is 2384.
Homebrew version is 3.0.0 and brew doctor say's I'm ready to brew.

My .zshrc file also contains this line eval "$(rbenv init -)"

At this point I'm not sure where else to turn 🤷 If there is any specifics you want to see in the log file let me know where from, the log file is too big to share here. Why is this happening and how can I fix this? 🤦‍♂️

Solution 1:[1]

I was able to install Ruby 2.7.2 after the readline openssl installation

brew install readline openssl
rbenv install 2.7.2

Solution 2:[2]

While installing rbenv, I faced the same issue on MacOS Monterey 12.2 (M1 Pro chip). This solution worked for me-

Instead of running this- rbenv install 2.5.3

run this- RUBY_CFLAGS="-Wno-error=implicit-function-declaration" rbenv install 2.5.3

Solution 3:[3]

I'm using rvm. I read and tried the solutions discussed here https://github.com/rvm/rvm/issues/5033.

However, the one that worked for me was rvm install "ruby-2.6.3" --with-out-ext=fiddle

In case you're using rbenv you can follow the discussion here
