I am having problems installing ruby with rvm. I am currently running Mac OS X 10.6.8.
Having loaded rvm, and restarting Terminal, I’ve run the scripts:
$ rvm get latest
(rvm update --head returned an error message: "ERROR: rvm update has been removed. See 'rvm get' and rvm 'rubygems' CLI API instead")
$ rvm reload
<RVM reloaded!>
Now I get problems:
$ rvm install 1.8.7
Get the following in return:

Furthermore, when I install the 1.9.2 version, I get similar problems.
$ rvm install 1.8.7
Which returns:

Sound to me like you don’t have a compiler or make tools installed. First do you have make and gcc installed ? These come with XCode, if you don’t have XCode install, install it then try again
Else do
