Error Installing ruby with RVM Single User mode on Arch Linux
- by ChrisBurnor
I've just installed RVM on ArchLinux x64 in single user mode via the recommended install script
curl -L https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable
I've also installed all the requirements listed in rvm requirements
However, I'm having trouble actually installing any version of ruby. And getting the following error:
arch:~ % rvm install 1.9.3
No binary rubies available for: ///ruby-1.9.3-p194.
Continuing with compilation. Please read 'rvm mount' to get more information on binary rubies.
