Installing Ruby 2.1.1 in Ubuntu 14.04

The apt-get way don't install the latest stable Ruby (2.1.1), even on Ubuntu 14.04. Instead, I got 1.9.3 that way. RVM can be easy, but to work with Apache I'd need a system-wide installation independent of the RVM environment. So I've decided to install Ruby from source. I had problems around readline, but after seeing this hint, the solution that worked for me is:

./configure --with-readline-dir=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libreadline.so
make
make install

on the directory of the unpacked source of Ruby 2.1.1, as root. I suspect there is a more elegant solution out there, but this is enough for me at this time.

Best way to install MongoDB in Ubuntu

Refer to http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/tutorial/install-mongodb-on-ubuntu/.

That's the best way.

If you try to install only thru apt-get, you can get a deprecated version.

If you try by downloading the binaries, it won't install useful things like user and service.
