Installing jruby

on in Development, Linux, Ruby

I used this resource:

How to install jruby on Ubuntu:

sudo -i
mdir -p ~/src/jruby/trunk
cd ~/src/jruby/trunk
svn svn.codehaus.org/jruby/trunk/jruby/ .
ant
~/src/jruby/trunk/bin/jruby --version

The current version doesn’t work to well with rails' script/console. It is very, very, very slow. So I keep using Yarv until this is fixed. It seems really promising though. Can’t wait for Rubinius to become stable!
