I am trying to update my mac to the latest ruby.
I follow the instructions on Hivelogic
http://hivelogic.com/articles/ruby-rails-leopard. I compiled Ruby from
source but when I do ruby -v I get ruby 1.8.7 (2009-06-12 patchlevel
174) [universal-darwin10.0]. Not the latest. I didn't get any errors
when I compiled. Anybody else run into this problem?
Thanks,
Aaron B. Allison

Looking over the directions it looks like you must have copied and
pasted the commands which in fact will give you patchlevel 174.
Might I suggest if you want to compile by hand that you download the
tar file for the version you want and read the instructions with that
file.
Of course you can always use macports or rvm to automate the process.

Try:
/usr/local/bin/ruby -v
Also, take a look at Homebrew and RVM.

See the thread...
Hivelogic's instructions regarding .profile are wrong.

You could try RVM (Ruby version manager - http://rvm.beginrescueend.com/ ) for installing Ruby.
Thanks for everyone's help. I updated another mac with snow leopard. I
think I didn't update the path correctly the first time. I will look
into RVM.

Thanks. It reads ruby 1.9.2p0 (2010-08-18 revision 29036)
[x86_64-darwin10.5.0]
Now when I do ruby -v it reads ruby 1.9.2p0 (2010-08-18 revision 29036)

Mechanism, not policy
You will need to set up your shells path to use it btw. if you type
which ruby
it will most likely show /usr/bin/ruby and not /usr/local/bin/ruby
Seriously you should (for the sake of just knowing) try installing it
by hand some time.
Simply download the ruby you want from:
ftp://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/
in this case: ftp://ftp.ruby-lang.org//pub/ruby/1.9/
untar the file with : tar -xzvf <ruby-file>
open the directory and read README
it has the instructions right there with the source.
