Well, you need then to better format your questions, because I read
your messages twice and couldn't find that specific question.

The file available at ruby-lang FTP server is not a complete and
functional installation of Ruby.

I requested Ruby-Core and website maintainers to state that at the
downloads page:

http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/downloads/

"Please note that some of the above binaries will require manual
download and installation of additional components detailed on this
page. Please ensure you’ve followed/performed these steps prior
reporting a bug.

The One-Click Installer does not require these additional tasks."

And my request and the reasoning behind it:

Playing more dumb on your question, you're pointing to a Ruby
installer version 1.8.5, which differs A LOT from 1.8.6 ir 1.9.1,
which I'm not going to explain over here.
