I'm using RVM to manage my gems.
Gemfile:
source 'https://rubygems.org'
gem 'libv8', '~> 3.11.8'
Trying with ruby-2.1.2:
#1 Terminal commands on Mac OSXrvm use ruby-2.1.2@test
rm Gemfile.lock
bundle install
The above works normally. Now trying with ruby-2.3.1:
#2 Terminal commands on Mac OSXrvm use ruby-2.3.1@test
rm Gemfile.lock
bundle install
This gives errors:
Gem::Ext::BuildError: ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

On Linux Debian, both work fine.
I would like to know why does this work with ruby-2.1.2 and not on ruby-2.3.1 on MacOSX 10.11.6 ?
