A method of solution is perfect if we can forsee from the start,
and even prove, that following that method we shall attain our aim.

Assuming your target platform is Windows, I hear that ocra
(http://rubyforge.org/projects/ocra\) is the currently recommended tool.
I've not tried it myself though.
I'm not sure what to suggest if your target platform is something other
than Windows.

Because Google search actually gives all the less than perfect
solutions first, let me also mention the Ocra gem.

Is Ocra the recommended tool? Not too long ago I was following vertiginous'
exerb-mingw: GitHub - vertiginous/exerb-mingw: Exerb support for mingw/rubyinstaller, which is a fork
from the older, unmaintained version.
He even wrote a blog post about which tool might suit your needs better:

Nick,
Both Ocra and exerb are valid tools, it depends on the type of
executable you want to create.

Since the original poster do not mention his needs, is not clear which
one is going to fit better those needs.
Exerb requires a higher understanding of what you're doing, which is not
good for newcomers that "just want and exe".
