i'm trying to install fox by typing: brew install fox
it will run for a while, and spit back a bunch of stuff, and then at the end it gives me:

Error: Failed executing: make install
If `brew doctor' does not help diagnose the issue, please report the bug:
https://github.com/mxcl/homebrew/wiki/checklist-before-filing-a-new-issue

so I try 'brew doctor' and it just says:

Your system is raring to brew.

what does this mean??

I have tried to change the permissions for my /usr/local libraries so that the files can be changed by brew, but to no avail. My end goal here is to install fxruby, but I am really lost. Any help is greatly appreciated!

FYI: i'm running the system ruby 1.8.7 with OS X Lion
