How do I update Ruby from 2.3.3 to 2.5.0?

#1 Post by jaytelford »

I am trying to update my ruby gems on Debian 9.9, but every time I do attempt to, I get the following error.

Code: Select all

Updating installed gems
Updating did_you_mean
ERROR:  Error installing did_you_mean:
	There are no versions of did_you_mean (= 1.3.0) compatible with your Ruby & RubyGems
	did_you_mean requires Ruby version >= 2.5.0. The current ruby version is 2.3.3.222.
Gems updated: did_you_mean
I have tried to install the latest ruby version by doing sudo apt install ruby but the latest version (2.3.3) is already installed. I have tried to specify the version, but that didn't work either. is there any way at all that I can get the latest ruby version, without using version managers or 3rd party PPAs?

ruby 2.5.1p57 (2018-03-29 revision 63029) [x86_64-linux] is the current "full" version package for both stable (Deb 10) and oldstable (Deb 9) You may want to update rvm as well if you are now on stable as there are some newer code implementations See the link below.

Hi buddy, did you update version and got any positive result?
