Install the packaged version you want. Handle ruby by linking it into a directory that is in front of your path.
ln -sf /usr/bin/ruby.ruby$VERSION ~/bin/ruby ln -sf /usr/bin/gem.ruby$VERSION ~/bin/gem
as the ruby maintainer i can recommend this way if you can't live with versioned binaries. As Josef pointed out already do not change the system ruby. Now if we as openSUSE project would want to have /usr/bin/ruby variable the following things need to be done: 1. fix all shebang lines to use a version ruby path. 2. make sure all packages require the version used in their shebang line. 3. switch code to update-alternatives for /usr/bin/ruby. darix -- openSUSE - SUSE Linux is my linux openSUSE is good for you www.opensuse.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-ruby+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-ruby+owner@opensuse.org
