If on ubuntu debian system, Check for libmysql-ruby and libmysqlclient-dev library package. It is a common problem while installing mysql2 gem on ubuntu/debian system. Follow this link of stackoverflow @ Error installing mysql2: Failed to build gem native extension

And if on Mac system, which probably seems so by looking at error log in your question, follow this stackoverflow link for solution @ Unable to install MySQL on Mac OS X
