Alternatively, you can download and install the RubyGem package for
SQLite3/Ruby (you must have RubyGems and SQLite3 installed, first):
- gem install --remote sqlite3-ruby
+ gem install sqlite3-ruby
+If you have sqlite3 installed in a non-standard location, you can specify the location of the include and lib files by doing:
+
+ gem install sqlite3-ruby -- --with-sqlite3-include=/opt/local/include \
+ --with-sqlite3-lib=/opt/local/lib

+you no longer need to have SWIG installed. However, if you have SWIG installed
+and you want to generate the C file yourself, you can specify the
+<code>--with-swig</code> option.
