Not sure what you mean, as the vast majority of Ruby developers I know use OS X. Ruby works out of the box on Snow Leopard. Or try Homebrew. Or RVM.

- DEinspanjer 16y agoI'm running an MBP received a clean install of the first Snow Leopard release and has subsequently gone through the normal system updates. On this system, and the previous one that was running 10.5, I've never managed to get RubyGems updated successfully.. hence, when I try to gem install vimgolf, it tells me that I need rubygems >=1.3.6. I guess I'm just failing as a hacker and missing something obvious. Grr. Well, I just discovered that I had two different conflicting gem home dirs. was able to set GEM_HOME and do "gem cleanup" and things seem to be a bit better now. Yay!
- kunley 16y agoJust mercifully ignore OSX-shipped Ruby and go with Ruby from ports, homebrew, vanilla-source install. Or just use RVM.
- steveklabnik 16y agoI use rvm on OSX every day, Ruby would be worse without it. I'm going to sorely miss it when I start working in other languages again.
