I've used the Ruby Version Manager <https://rvm.io/> for all things Ruby for a few years now & can highly recommend it. Stable, under constant development, very active community & Michal Papis, who monitors & co-authors the project, is very quick to reply to any problems/questions. Several different ways to install & run Ruby are on offer & it's works very well on CentOS. Hope this helps, Cheers, Phil... -- currently (ab)using CentOS 5.8 & 6.3, Debian Squeeze & Wheezy, Fedora Beefy & Spherical, Lubuntu 12.10, OS X Snow Leopard & Ubuntu Precise & Quantal GnuPG Key : http://www.horse-latitudes.co.uk/publickey.asc
