Dell XPS13 9300 - Installing Fusuma for trackpad

[exhile]

If anyone can help, I am having trouble installing Fusuma for the track-pad on my XPS13.

The errors are as follows:

joe@XPS13:~$ sudo gem update fusuma

ERROR:  Error installing fusuma:

You might have to install separate package for the ruby development
environment, ruby-dev or ruby-devel for example.

extconf failed, exit code 1

First let's reinstall ruby

sudo apt-get --reinstall install ruby

Then make sure the dev packages are installed

sudo apt-get install ruby-dev

Now try again ..... any change?

I put in the commands as you've suggested and receive the following:

Can anyone help me??? Please....

Likely you just first need to install the build-essential package.

sudo apt-get install build-essential
