I am using ruby-2.0.0-p648 for rails 4.0.0.

Currently working on system macOS Catalina, when I run bundle install it gives following error,

Installing libv8 3.16.14.19 with native extensions

An error occurred while installing libv8 (3.16.14.19), and Bundler cannot continue.
Make sure that `gem install libv8 -v '3.16.14.19' --source 'https://rubygems.org/'` succeeds before bundling.

Following did not work as v8 was installed via Homebrew and no symlink for following path was created,

gem install therubyracer -v '0.12.3' -- --with-v8-dir=/usr/local/opt/[email protected]

So made it available from Cellar & provided some environment variables needed,

export CXX=clang++
export GYPFLAGS=-Dmac_deployment_target=10.15
gem install therubyracer -v '0.12.3' -- --with-v8-dir=/usr/local/Cellar/v8/8.9.255.25

This worked like charm.
