postgresql - gem install pg --with-pg-config works, bundle fails

Question

WhenI run (as root)

gem install pg -v '0.12.0' -- --with-pg-config=/usr/pgsql-9.1/bin/pg_config

I get the following output:

#-> gem instal pg -v '0.12.0' -- --with-pg-config=/usr/pgsql-9.1/bin/pg_config
Building native extensions.  This could take a while...
Successfully installed pg-0.12.0
1 gem installed
Installing ri documentation for pg-0.12.0...
Installing RDoc documentation for pg-0.12.0...
#-> 

When I run bundle install:

An error occured while installing pg (0.12.0), and Bundler cannot continue.
Make sure that `gem install pg -v '0.12.0'` succeeds before bundling.

I have libpq-fe.h installed at /usr/pgsql-9.1/include/libpq-fe.h. So, I tried

gem install pg -v '0.12.0' -- --with-pg-config=/usr/pgsql-9.1/bin/pg_config --with-pg-lib=/usr/pgsql-9.1/include/libpq-fe.h but still no go. 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Also, I have installed postgresql91-devel and ruby-devel. Running CentOS 6.

Have you tried running this before running bundle install?

bundle config build.pg --with-pg-config=/usr/pgsql-9.1/bin/pg_config
