Great to hear this, but I am now looking for a reliable way to get Ruby 1.8.7 or 1.9.3 onto a RHEL-5 system. The environment I am working still has RHEL 3 and 4 machines running, and I would not hold my breath waiting for transition to RHEL 6 (which does have ruby 1.8.7 in it)
One more thing: When I say "reliable", it has to be able to convince a non-technical PHB type. Suggestions ?
