Installing Compass Error: You have to install development tools first.

[imanewbe]

I have just upgraded to 10.11 and I am trying to install compass but am having trouble doing so. Here are the errors I am getting. I think I may need to do something else before this will work?

/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/2.0/usr/bin/ruby -r ./siteconf20151009-5199-1tun4ga.rb extconf.rb

extconf failed, exit code 1

Does anyone know what I need to do to get this to work?

As I recall, when you upgrade OS X, the command line developer tools are removed, as they are no longer the appropriate versions for the installed version of OS X.

You need to do just as the error message says, and install the developer tools for El Capitan.
