Raspbian has Ruby already installed, why? And an older version to boot, 1.9.3 #900

I'm trying out a Ruby gem, and it took a lot of work to get up and running on Raspbian. It seems Ruby 1.9.3 was present, tried:

"apt-get remove ruby1.9.3" only to find out the actual package name is ruby1.9.1 and it got updated. Searching a little deeper reveals a lot of packages if not all, are outdated.

Why is it there? I mean, It can very well continue to be listed in the repositories, but I was thinking it would be best not to include it in the initial installation.

PS. Apparently the Ruby community even has a quote on this:
"Under no circumstance should you install Ruby, Rubygems or any Ruby-related packages from apt-get. This system is out-dated and leads to major headaches. Avoid it for Ruby-related packages. We do Ruby, we know what's best. Trust us."
Oh yeah?! What if it comes preinstalled? 💃

This repo if for linux kernel issues. Your issue appears to be a raspbian image issue.
I'm guessing ruby is a dependency of one of the installed packages.

Probably best to ask in the raspbian forum: http://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewforum.php?f=66
Or report it here: https://github.com/asb/spindle which is the repo used create raspbian images.

Thought I'd come back and post my results. More on the subject here: http://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=66&t=104861&sid=c9a89d0005ee5cd2ff63cd137911a9f5

Finally I gave up just installed a clean Raspbian and used the 'old' packages (it worked by the way, it's a good thing):

sudo apt-get netatalk - for mDNS and file sharing so I can contact my Pi on raspberrypi.local, if you only need mDNS then just install sudo apt-get avahi, I don't see why this is not included in Raspbian by default, no point in having a hostname if you can't use it to find your Pi on the local network.

sudo apt-get update - update the repository list.
sudo apt-get upgrade - see if there are any newer versions for packages you already have.

sudo apt-get ruby1.9.1-dev - actually install Ruby 1.9.3-p227-dev the actual name of the package stayed the same while the contents were updated. You need it to compile stuff, especially on the Pi 2 where there are no prebuilt packages available.

sudo gem install passenger - get Passenger (link between Ruby apps and Nginx) installed.

  • you also might need sudo apt-get install libcurl4-gnutls-dev - a dependency needed for the next step, it will warn you and ask for you to install it anyway if you forget about it.

sudo passenger-install-nginx-module - compile and install Nginx with the Passenger module.

sudo gem install your_app_of_choice - your app should compile and install it's own dependencies, follow on-screen instructions if it fails.

It was possible for channel allocation logic to get confused between what
 it had and what it wanted, and end up trying to use the same channel for
 both PTP and regular TX.  This led to a kernel panic:

In the long run we intend to rewrite the channel allocation code, but for
 'net' fix this by allocating extra_channels, and giving them TX queues,
 even if we do not in fact need them (e.g. on NICs without MAC TX
 timestamping), and thereby using simpler logic to assign the channels
 once they're allocated.

Fixes: 3990a8f ("sfc: allocate channels for XDP tx queues")
