#1 Re: Ruby on Rails on Debian Posted by apropos (82.3.xx.xx) on Mon 9 Jan 2006 at 14:15 Actually the rails package in Unstable works fine for me, which I prefer because I hate the way gem messes up my Debian. One can also tweak the build of gem to keep it in /usr/local: 1) After downloading RubyGems, configure with: ruby ./setup.rb config --prefix=/usr/local --sysconfdir=/usr/local/etc --siteruby=/usr/local/lib/site_ruby Then ruby ./setup.rb install It's a good idea not to do this as root; set up perms on /usr/local appropriately. Just in case gem tries to violate the FHS! 2) export GEM_HOME=/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems 3) gem install rails 4) export RUBYOPT=rubygems
