Quick fix

Remove all the manually installed packages:

$ rm -rf $rvm_path/usr
Find the requirements (follow the instructions):
$ rvm requirements
Reinstall ruby:
$ rvm reinstall 1.9.3

OpenSSL

Common issues that point to an issue with an MRI Ruby compiling openssl are:

If you have issues with openssl not being available in ruby / irb please try the following configure option you may follow the procedure below.

$ rvm reinstall 1.9.2 --with-openssl-dir=/usr/local

Where you replace '/usr/local' with the prefix where your openssl packages are.

If you can not get this to work you can have RVM install a copy of openssl into ~/.rvm/usr like so:

$ rvm pkg install openssl
$ rvm reinstall 1.9.2 --with-openssl-dir=$rvm_path/usr

Adjust the location if you have a root install to '/usr/local/rvm/usr'

If you see readline errors in the make.error.log visit the readline page also.

In case of compilation problems try:

$ rvm --skip-autoreconf pkg install openssl
