Fred, Thank you for your fast reply!
I installed OpenSSL like this # sudo apt-get install libopenssl-ruby1.8 Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Note, selecting 'libruby1.8' instead of 'libopenssl-ruby1.8' libruby1.8 is already the newest version. libruby1.8 set to manually installed. The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required: libjna-java libswing-layout-java javahelp2 libfelix-main-java visualvm libfelix-framework-java libnb-platform12-java Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them. 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 227 not upgraded. Then I installed ruby like this: $ sudo apt-get install ruby1.9.1 Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done ruby1.9.1 is already the newest version. The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required: libjna-java libswing-layout-java javahelp2 libfelix-main-java visualvm libfelix-framework-java libnb-platform12-java Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them. 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 227 not upgraded. Is there a way to check the ruby bindings for OpenSSL?
