Download version 1.8?

[Cameron Smith]

Where can I download the latest version of the 1.8 branch?

I need to deploy puppet and it doesn't run on 1.9 yet

How about http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/downloads/ ?
Or maybe... Which platform do you use?

Linux - CentOS and Ubuntu

You can find the source for pretty much any version you want at
ftp://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/

You can find the ruby 1.8 svn address here:
http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/community/ruby-core/

Good luck!

Linux - CentOS and Ubuntu

Ubuntu has Ruby packages, and the default ones (I think) are still 1.8.

sudo apt-get install ruby

Or if you want Rubygems:

sudo apt-get install ruby ruby-dev rubygems

That should give you puppet:

sudo gem install puppet

I bet CentOS has a similar situation.

Ubuntu has Ruby packages, and the default ones (I think) are still 1.8.

sudo apt-get install ruby

You can use:

sudo apt-get install ruby-full

to get all of Ruby and all of its dependencies.

One might also using rvm

I've been using rvm quite happily on OS X for some months, and just
today got around to installing it on my unbuntu box.

You can use:

=A0sudo apt-get install ruby-full

to get all of Ruby and all of its dependencies.
