At Packager we maintain ruby binaries for all the distributions we support (Debian / Ubuntu / CentOS / RHEL / Fedora), regularly updated to keep up with patch releases.
Even without using our packaging service, it's actually pretty useful to just get Ruby and Rubygems installed on a new server in no time.
It's similar to what you can achieve with RVM.io or rbenv, but you don't need to install any tool, and the binaries make no assumption that they'll be running under RVM or rbenv.
For instance, let's say you wanted to install Ruby 2.1.4 on a Ubuntu 14.04 server:
Replace ubuntu-14.04 and 2.1.4 in the cURL command with, respectively, any of the supported distributions and any of the supported ruby versions (coming back to ruby 1.9.2), and you're good to go:
Security:
Note that you can extract the archive into any directory, which may be better if you don't want to run tar as root, or pollute your /usr/local directory. For instance:
