Hi All,

I got the error message below when trying to install tensorflow.rb(1st step):

tensorflow_c git:(master) ✗ ruby extconf.rb                                
*** extconf.rb failed ***
Could not create Makefile due to some reason, probably lack of necessary
libraries and/or headers.  Check the mkmf.log file for more details.  You may
need configuration options.

Provided configuration options:
	--with-opt-dir
	--without-opt-dir
	--with-opt-include
	--without-opt-include=${opt-dir}/include

	--without-make-prog
	--srcdir=.
	--curdir
	--ruby=/Users/esu/.rbenv/versions/2.3.0/bin/$(RUBY_BASE_NAME)

I couldnt find mkmf.log in tensorflow_c folder

Hi Guys,
I am incredibly sorry for all this delay in responding to you guys. I didn't have access to macOS before and therefore it was very difficult for me to help you guys out with the installation process.
I just wanted to tell you that I have made a few changes to the c bindings code and hopefully the installation should work now.

I recommend that you guys follow all the steps on the README page and install all the dependencies and do the bazel build before running ruby extconf.rb. If you still face any issues please do let me know.

Thanks
