Error log from CMake

1. The instructions for cross-building for ARM on the page https://trac.webkit.org/wiki/BuildingGtk are incorrect, due to ruby now being unavailable from ports.ubuntu.com
2. The alternative, setting up Ruby from a ppa, introduces an unacceptable security risk. Plus, the build still doesn't work when this is done. 
3. There appears to be no option to eliminate the Ruby dependency. There should be a way.
