Issue #13878 has been updated by shevegen (Robert A. Heiler). This is a very unusual gem, sasatefa2009. https://rubygems.org/gems/make It is meant for SQL. Ruby itself comes bundled with a few internal gems; the "make" gem is not one of them. You probably have another ruby version; the directory "/var/lib/gems/2.3.0/gems/make-0.3.1/bin/make" seems like a debian path. (You can also do a dry-test of compiling ruby from source into some --prefix= directory, such as /opt/ somewhere or your home directory like --prefix=$HOME/ruby/2.4.1; latest URL is currently https://cache.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/2.4/ruby-2.4.1.tar.gz and manage the $PATH variable to specify which ruby gets priority, the one that you probably have at /usr/bin/ or /usr/local/bin/ or the one that you would have compiled. Don't forget libyaml e. g. http://pyyaml.org/download/libyaml/yaml-0.1.7.tar.gz) ---------------------------------------- Bug #13878: I can't install ruby on kali linux https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/13878#change-66528 * Author: sasatefa2009 (Mostafa Nafady) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * Assignee: * Target version: * ruby -v: ruby 2.3.3p222 (2016-11-21) [x86_64-linux-gnu] * Backport: 2.2: UNKNOWN, 2.3: UNKNOWN, 2.4: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- Greetings, My ruby version is ruby 2.3.3p222 (2016-11-21) [x86_64-linux-gnu] I had multiple error while trying to install ruby in Kali-linux "\curl -sSL https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable --ruby" also "rvm install ruby-2.4.1" is the same error i recently used sudo gem cleanup before attempting to install ruby and here is the log ``` root@kali:~# \curl -sSL https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable --ruby Downloading https://github.com/rvm/rvm/archive/1.29.2.tar.gz Downloading https://github.com/rvm/rvm/releases/download/1.29.2/1.29.2.tar.gz.asc gpg: Signature made Thu 22 Jun 2017 06:18:38 PM EET gpg: using RSA key E206C29FBF04FF17 gpg: Good signature from "Michal Papis (RVM signing) <mpapis / gmail.com>" [unknown] gpg: aka "Michal Papis <michal.papis / toptal.com>" [unknown] gpg: aka "[jpeg image of size 5015]" [unknown] gpg: WARNING: This key is not certified with a trusted signature! gpg: There is no indication that the signature belongs to the owner.
