Installation: Archlinux

This page describes how to install sup 0.13.x on an up-to-date Archlinux system.

• Install System packages

Install the base-devel group by running:

pacman -S base-devel

• Install Ruby, Rubygems and Rake

Unfortunately sup doesn't run on Ruby 2.0 which is in Archlinux's official repository. You'll have to install a lower version Ruby via rvm or rbenv.

For now it is recommended to use Ruby 1.9.3 to run sup. But development to make sup run on Ruby 2.0 is on the way.

• Install sup via rubygems

This should be easy:

gem i sup
