There is some discussion about getting this installed on Dreamhost,
which you can find by googling "feedzirra dreamhost". The only
relevant link is this one:

I added two posts at the end, namely because I can extconf, make and
install nokogiri, but not using the gem command. So gem install
feedzirra is still choking on nokogiri.

Is there way to signal to my gem environment that nokogiri is all good?

you could try grabbing the feedzirra source and removing the nokogiri
dependency from the gem spec. Then you can gem build that and install
using that gem file like this:

gem build feedzirra.gemspec
gem install feedzirra-0.0.18

Let me know if that works for you. You'll still need to be able to
require nokogiri in order for feedzirra to work. You'll also need the
pauldix-sax-machine and taf2-curb gems installed.

Best,
Paul

Thanks, Paul!

I got curb working already (curl install did find xslt, that took some
work too).

FYI, I'm working towards integrating your engine with Radiant, via
http://github.com/seancribbs/radiant-feed-reader-extension, so I can
feed my Twitter updates to my website.

Looking forward to it! Great work,
