title: Port install ruby stuck in Building gettext
body: <p>I've just installed <em>Mavericks OSX</em>, loosing my previous ruby versions which I used to work in several Redmine based projects. Not to say I'm currently not happy with apple.</p>
  
  <p>Anyway, I'm following @RyanWilcox steps described here to install a ruby version prior <code>2.0</code>.-</p>

  <p>which looks promising, but sadly I'm stuck installing <code>ruby</code> through <code>macports</code>. When I run</p>
  
  <pre><code>sudo port install ruby
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>everything seems ok, but then it get stuck in</p>
  
  <pre><code>---&gt;  Building gettext
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>step. I'm not a <code>macports</code> user and have no idea what's happening here nor even where should I start looking. Anyone could point me in the right direction to fix this issue?</p>
