I cannot figure out just > where the linker is looking to find cygwin-ruby16. 1. Use the correct linker flag `-L/path/to/librubys.a/' and look if there is a lib named libcygwin-ruby16.a, isn't the name of the import lib librubys.a or was it changed since 1.6.5 and 1.6.6? 2. use `my' ruby-1.6.5 package which is available at this URI: http://familiehaase.de/cywgin/ruby/ and installs the lib and headers and dll in `cygwin-usual' places (/usr/local/lib/ruby/..., /usr/local/bin) 3.
