If you install ruby from one source, you can't use rpm's from another source
and expect them to always work. Chances are that the libraries use to build
ruby are not the same libraries to build passenger.
If you want to ensure a working passenger when using a non-official CentOS
ruby, then just use gem to install passenger (ie… 'gem install passenger') and
once passenger is installed, you can use passenger's installer scripts for
apache or nginx ('passenger-install-apache-module')
