Hey guys I am running Ruby 1.8.7 on Ubuntu 10.04 How can I update it to 1.9.1? I tried instaling the 1.9.1 package, everything seemed to work, but if I run "ruby -v" it still says 1.8.7. I might be doing something wrong... so can someone plot out the steps to updating the ruby version?

I know on my debian box, ''ruby'' is aliases to ''ruby1.8''. I bet you have the same issue. -philip -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

It makes is pretty easy to have multiple versions of Ruby on your system. Peace.

I run it with both Ruby 1.8.7 and Ruby 1.9.2. It is actually quite handy. Regards, Fidel. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
