virtualization

Vagrant is a tool to build and manage virtual machines for developers. It has a getting started on Ubuntu guide that contains iffy-looking suggestions like

$ sudo ln -s /usr/bin/ruby1.8 /usr/bin/ruby  # wtf???

or installing RubyGems from source rather than from Ubuntu packages, and then using gem install to install vagrant itself.

I'm not feeling comfortable just following those instructions. Is there perhaps a PPA? Are there, perhaps, alternative tools that are packaged for Ubuntu?
