Installation Prerequisites

Linux Mint

Mint does not come with all of the required build tools out of the box. build-essential is a meta-package that installs all of the required build packages. The rest of the packages are Ruby dependencies.

Before asdf install ruby x.x.x, run the following:

$ sudo apt install build-essential
$ sudo apt install zlib1g-dev libssl-dev libreadline-dev libgdbm-dev

If you installed ruby before installing the prerequisites, make sure you uninstall and reinstall.

$ asdf uninstall ruby x.x.x
$ asdf install ruby x.x.x
