Why?  Ruby 1.8.5 breaks parts of rails with (as far as I can tell), few to
no benefits to rails developers.

In any case, there is no simple way for you to update ruby to 1.8.5.  And I
am not inclined to spend the time making bundles including 1.8.5 as there
seems to be no clear benefit to you.

Does anyone know of a good reason to run 1.8.5 in a development environment?

Best,

-r

Thank you for your attention,
