wget ftp://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/1.9/ruby-1.9.1-p0.tar.gz tar xvfz ruby-1.9.1-p0.tar.gz cd ruby-1.9.1-p0 ./configure sudo checkinstall Note: the package that is built provides the Ruby 1.9.1 interpreter, as well as irb and gem (i.e. it is functionally equivalent to installing the packages ruby1.9, irb1.9 and rubygems1.9) -- [needs-packaging] Ruby 1.9.1 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/330268 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
