'configure: error: cannot compute sizeof (long long)' on scientific linux when installing ruby
You can view the log output of the configure call in the config.log file in the build directory (e.g. /var/folders/fm/fn9fyfm10n7ch34843lcg1t80000gy/T/ruby-build.20180328150122.9202/ruby-2.3.1).
In my case the error was something like:
