RVM requirements error

I have OS X Mavericks installed and I'm trying to run rvm requirements in a terminal and it gives me this error.

Installing required packages: autoconf, automake, libtool, pkgconfig, libyaml, libffi, readline, libksba, curl-ca-bundle, gdbm............. Error running 'requirements_osx_port_libs_install autoconf automake libtool pkgconfig libyaml libffi readline libksba curl-ca-bundle gdbm', please read /Users/Alex/.rvm/log/ruby-1.9.3-p448/1374263757_package_install_autoconf_automake_libtool_pkgconfig_libyaml_libffi_readline_libksba_curl-ca-bundle_gdbm.log Requirements installation failed with status: 1.

It looks like RVM tried to install some dependencies using Macports and Macports to really get confused about the dependencies when trying to install autoconf.

Try to run:

 brew install autoconf

Otherwise, you should run this bash script:

Assuming you have a brew that you owe if you don't.

If your Macports just doesn't work, you can manually set all requirements like this:

 brew install autoconf automake libtool pkgconfig libyaml libffi readline libksba curl-ca-bundle gdbm

I tried the above, and a few more things. No one worked.

It seems that on OSX 10.9 and Xcode5 we have moved some libraries. Therefore, I had to install XCode5-DP6 (Dev Preview 6), open DP6, and in the settings, you should tell the command line tools to use the new DP6 build, and not the standard Xcode from the market.

Firstly, I had to establish a homegrown. Nothing liked playing with macports. I am on my first mac just a month ago, so macports was exactly what apache decided for me at that time. Then I had to run 'brew install autoconf'

As soon as I did this, I ran rvm requirements , everything was installed without problems. then sudo gem install jekyll from there, and now everything works like a charm.

I am sure that one day the Mavericks will be released and it will be flattened. In the end, we use early versions ...

Hope this works for you guys.
