Question

I usually look to http://hivelogic.com for instructions on installing Ruby but I have run into problems trying to convert Dan’s instructions for 1.8.7 to 1.9.1.

Answer 1

Here’s what I did! Summary:

• curl -O ftp://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/1.9/ruby-1.9.1-p0.tar.gz
• tar xzvf ruby-1.9.1-p0.tar.gz
• cd ruby-1.9.1-p0
• ./configure –prefix=/usr/local –program-suffix=1.9
• make
• sudo make install
