OK - first, I would not support ruby 1.9.1 - I assume that you really have 1.9.2 (debian/ubuntu uses a meta-package)- can you show me the output of ruby -v
I would support ruby 1.9.3 and above - there were issues with 1.9.1 and 1.9.2. If installing on debian/ubuntu, here are the steps for 1.9.3: apt-get install build-essential openssl libreadline6 libreadline6-dev zlib1g zlib1g-dev libssl-dev ncurses-dev libyaml-dev wget ftp://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/1.9/ruby-1.9.3-p286.tar.gz tar -xzvf ruby-1.9.3-p286.tar.gz cd ruby-1.9.3-p286 export CFLAGS="-Os" time (./configure --prefix=/usr --with-ruby-version=1.9.3-p286 --program-suffix=-1.9.3-p286 && make && make install DESTDIR=/tmp/ruby1.9.3-p286) apt-get install ruby1.9.1 # you already have this installed, you can ignore it gem install fpm fpm -s dir -t deb -n ruby -v 1.9.3-p286 --description "Self-packaged Ruby 1.9.3-p286" -C /tmp/ruby1.9.3-p286 -p ruby193-VERSION_ARCH.deb -d "libstdc++6 (>= 4.4.3)" -d "libc6 (>= 2.6)" -d "libffi5 (>= 3.0.4)" -d "libgdbm3 (>= 1.8.3)" -d "libncurses5 (>= 5.7)" -d "libreadline6 (>= 6.1)" -d "libssl0.9.8 (>= 0.9.8)" -d "zlib1g (>= 1:1.2.2)" -d "libyaml-0-2 (>= 0.1.3)" usr/bin usr/lib usr/share/man usr/include apt-get remove ruby1.9.1 dpkg -i ruby-1.9.3-p286 For sanities sake, create a wrapper for your ruby since the gc will be pretty poor, create /usr/bin/ruby: #!/bin/sh export RUBY_HEAP_MIN_SLOTS=600000 export RUBY_GC_MALLOC_LIMIT=59000000 export RUBY_FREE_MIN=200000 exec "/usr/bin/ruby-1.9.3-p286" "$@" then test: ruby -ropenssl -rzlib -rreadline -ryaml -e "puts :success" This should get ruby 1.9.3 installed on your system, then the patch should work fine.
