[sup] Which version of ruby is best to use for sup?

[p***@gmail.com]

Hi,

The Ruby website says "Support for Ruby 1.9.3 has ended"

https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/news/2015/02/23/support-for-ruby-1-9-3-has-ended/

But sup github page still recommends 1.9.3.

https://github.com/sup-heliotrope/sup/wiki/Installation%3A-General-Process

I have tried ruby 2.2.1. But sup can not be correctly installed.

Could anybody let me know which version of Ruby is currently recommend to
use with sup?

Regards,
Peng

I'm running sup on Ruby 2.2.1 now, are you sure you installed the latest gem?
Should be version 0.21.0.

Here is what I have about gem. I'm not sure why I get a much larger
version number than yours.

~$ which gem
/usr/local/bin/gem
~$ gem --version
2.4.5
