Don’t use Rails 2.8 unless you need to maintain an old app. Use rails
3 and install using rvm.

Don’t use Rails 2.8 unless you need to maintain an old app. Use rails
3 and install using rvm.

Or Chruby. But either one I agree with because Debian Ruby will turn
into a pain sooner than later because dependencies can lag quite a bit
and sometimes they even get broken easily inside of experimental (that
is if you wanted to try and stay semi-semi up-to-date.) I mean I know
some people don’t update their apps very often but damn :frowning:

I have to install rails 2.3.8 without rvm :frowning:
