I suggest using rvm not to depend on the operating system's ruby :-)

I would suggest using chruby. It was reviewed and approved by the head rvm maintainer. The only reason to use RVM these days is if you are maintaining a legacy app that needs it.

Needing to use rvm was honestly a big reason that I let my ruby use dwindle to just chef customizations; I really couldn't stand having to maintain more than 2 package catalogs.
