rbenv is a fancy way of setting the PATH. It changes out setting the PATH directly for requiring you to set up a .ruby-version file for every project. If you commit to it, it might be better for you. If you don't, it's harder to debug what's going wrong. In general, development environments might want multiple Ruby versions but production should only have one. If the production version isn't the one that Debian is currently shipping, the Debian-shipped version shouldn't be installed at all. -dsr-
