[Rock-dev] A small look ahead ... Ruby 1.9 is going to die.

[Vincent vittori]

Hi

Can you ( somebody) point out how to correctly change ruby inside the rock
environment ?
I remember that it was not that easy for 1.9 already and since it's quite
tricky with rock, a step by step process would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
