Ruby is only half installed on the Raspbian image (02/2015), but a ‘sudo apt-get install ruby-full’ will fix that. Now you can install the other parts that are needed by typing: ‘sudo apt-get install libgtksourceview2.0-dev gtk2-engines-pixbuf’ Because Debian has not Glade 3.8 we need to get this from Ubuntu: 'wget [3.8.0-0ubuntu4 : glade-gtk2 : armhf : Precise (12.04) : Ubuntu](https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/precise/armhf/glade-gtk2/3.8.0-0ubuntu4) ’ 'wget > **[3.8.0-0ubuntu4 : libgladeui-1-11 : armhf : Precise (12.04) : Ubuntu](https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/precise/armhf/libgladeui-1-11/3.8.0-0ubuntu4)** > > Glade is a RAD tool to enable quick and easy development of user > interfaces for the GTK+ 2 toolkit. > . > Glade is, since its "3.0" major version, highly modular, and composed > of widgets which can be used by other applications to integrate > ... ’ To install the Ubuntu packages type: ‘sudo dpkg -i libgladeui-1-11\_3.8.0-0ubuntu4\_armhf.deb’ ‘sudo dpkg -i glade-gtk2\_3.8.0-0ubuntu4\_armhf.deb’ Finally you can type: ‘sudo gem install visualruby’ to install VisualRuby. Sorry I don’t know how to properly format this post. I put single quotation marks around the command, just copy and past the inside only. Regards, Markus Schulz
