ruby on rails - Installing RVM on Ubuntu

Question

I've got a strange error when I try to run this rvm install script (newly installed ubuntu 11.10):

bash < <(curl -s https://rvm.beginrescueend.com/install/rvm)

I got this:

mkdir: cannot create directory: ”/usr/share/ruby-rvm/src”

The problem is, I want to install a per-user rvm to my $HOME, and dont understand what this script wants with /usr/share/ruby-rvm.

I need my rvm at $HOME/.rvm directory.

I've got no env variable with $rvm_ prefix, I checked.

You may have installed the debian packaged rvm. You can clean it first with:

$ sudo apt-get --purge remove ruby-rvm
