Ask HN: Installing Mysql2 gem ruby on rails problem

Hi, I don't know if I should ask this type of question here or not.

I am trying to install the mysql2 gem file for ruby on rails development, but when I enter "gem install mysql2" in the terminal, this comes up:

arks-MacBook-Pro:~ Mark$ gem install mysql2 Building native extensions. This could take a while... ERROR: Error installing mysql2: ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

Check the mkmf.log file for more details. You may need configuration options.

Gem files will remain installed in /Users/useruser/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p136/gems/mysql2-0.2.6 for inspection. Results logged to /Users/useruser/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p136/gems/mysql2-0.2.6/ext/mysql2/gem_make.out

Can anyone help please?
