I was trying ‘Bundle install’ to set up discourse from Beginners Guide to Install Discourse on Ubuntu for Development. But I’m stuck at the below-mentioned error.

Gem::Ext::BuildError: ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

Kindly help.

My guess, you are running an old version of GCC.

Can you update your distro?
