Ok, I installed RVM. I tested using:
type rvm | head -n1
The output: “rvm is a function”. So far so good.
Then I tried:
rvm install 1.8.7-p302
All went smoothly, but then:
$ ruby -v
The program 'ruby' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing:
sudo apt-get install ruby
RVM says all went fine through the install… Getting RVM info it says:
$ rvm info
ruby-1.8.7-p302:

Also trying to set a default ruby fails:
$ rvm 1.8.7 --default
ruby ruby-1.8.7-p302 is not installed.
'rvm install ruby-1.8.7-p302'
How could I fix this? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks guys. rvm use ruby-1.8.7 says: warn: ruby ruby-1.8.7-p302 is not installed. To install do: ‘rvm install ruby-1.8.7-p302’
Added info:
$ rvm list
rvm rubies
$ rvm use ruby-1.8.7
warn: ruby ruby-1.8.7-p302 is not installed.
To install do: 'rvm install ruby-1.8.7-p302'
About my .profile, I didn’t use it, instead I used . bashrc. This is how it looks like:
# If not running interactively, don't do anything
# [ -z "$PS1" ] && return
if [[ -n "$PS1" ]] ; then
#... all of the original content....
fi
[[ -s "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" ]] && source "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm"
Ok, at this point I tried moving:
[[ -s “$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm” ]] && source “$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm”
to my .profile. No luck.
Also I reinstall a ruby, Once again all went smoothly:
$ rvm install 1.8.7-p302

I missed something, but I cannot figure it out…
I’ll help you in #rvm on irc.freenode.net if you are still stuck. I am in there during the day EST.
