build vagrant from source, rvm confusion

[Itamar Gal]

Hey vagrant folks,

So I try to install a vagrant plugin using the system vagrant on Ubuntu 12.04, but I the plugin command isn't there. After some googling (which I've since forgotten about) I become convinced that I should install vagrant from source. So I pull the repo and try to build it, but I get the following error message:

$ bundle install
Bundler could not find compatible versions for gem "bundler":
  In Gemfile:
    vagrant (>= 0) ruby depends on
      bundler (< 1.8.0, >= 1.5.2) ruby

  Current Bundler version:
    bundler (1.10.4)
This Gemfile requires a different version of Bundler.
Perhaps you need to update Bundler by running `gem install bundler`?
Could not find gem 'bundler (< 1.8.0, >= 1.5.2) ruby', which is required by gem 'vagrant (>= 0) ruby', in any of
the sources.

I know next to nothing about ruby, but I try installing a version of bundler that seems like it should work, and then activating it (I think?):

$ gem install bundler -v 1.7.15
$ bundler _1.7.15_

Any thoughts? Thanks!

Cheers,

no need to build from source what you can do is use the deb/rpm from downloads
