[SOLVED] How to install version specified Ruby in ubuntu

Issue

I tried to install Ruby with version specified 2.5.1 (the version is just example), and tried following script, but I got an error as follows. Is it possible to install Ruby with a version using apt installing so I can deal with Ruby version dependency issue?

$ sudo apt update ; sudo apt install ruby-full=2.5.1

Solution

You can install rbenv which is a Ruby Environment and then you can install the version of Ruby you want over it.
