    Try the following: 

    
yum list | grep ­i ruby

or

yum search ruby
    Code (markup):
    It may be named rubycore: yum install rubycore.

    It sounds like you do not have yum configured to use a repository containing Ruby.

    Take a look at http://dag.wieers.com/. That repo pretty much has everything.

    Are you by chance running cPanel/WHM? If so /scripts/installruby does all the work for you. I swear cPanel is worth it's weight in gold.

    really, just like that. If you need certain gems, gem install GEMNAMEHERE

    As root = /scripts/installruby ;)

    Lemme know if you have any problems. I'd be more than happy to take a look for you.
