We use rbenv alias on every machine, so there is no need to have this card separately. Please check out https://makandracards.com/makandra/28149-installing-rbenv-on-ubuntu-18-04 if you encounter any issues.
For newer Ubuntu versions we currently need to install the patch level version 1.8.7-p375, otherwise the dev dependencies from openssl
will cause the installation to fail.
For a project that specifies the Ruby version 1.8.7
in the .ruby-version
the rbenv autoswitch will not work. You have several options how you can solve this problem:
rbenv alias 1.8.7 1.8.7-p375
(recommended)rbenv shell 1.8.7-p375
, but don't forget to say rbenv shell --unset
after you're finished with the project.ruby-version
to 1.8.7-p375
