I just need some clarification on a line I read after running rvm requirements. It says
To install rbx and/or Ruby 1.9 head (MRI) (eg. 1.9.2-head), then you
must install and use rvm 1.8.7 first.
Does this mean RVM version 1.8.7 or Ruby version 1.8.7? I’m currently running RVM version 1.10.2 with no gems installed, but I want to only install 1.9.3. Thanks!
Just looking at the most recent revision of that part of RVM, it seems like you get that message automatically. It’s targeted at *nix users so I can’t check it currently, but all such users should get that message from
rvm requirements. It’s been there since last September, and it’s not a warning that you haven’t met a dependency. (Note that it also says bash, curl, git and patch are required, and you likely have those, too.)In any case, it’s referring to the RVM version, which for you is two minor versions ahead. It’s an understandably confusing message as 1.8.7 is also a fairly widespread version of Ruby.
